Notes
'St. Pat Scallop' squash (Cucurbita 'St. Pat Scallop') is a vegetable for the food garden. It is typically grown as an annual. It is tender to cold, and the first hard frost will kill it. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, loamy soil. It blooms from early to late summer, so flowers appear for much of the growing season.
Pairs well with Smoothie cucumber, Super Chili pepper, and Basil.
