Notes

'Tivoli' squash (Cucurbita 'Tivoli') is a vegetable for the food garden. It is typically grown as an annual. It is not cold-hardy and will not survive freezing temperatures. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, loamy soil. It has a bush habit, so it fits smaller beds. It blooms from early to late summer and is ready to pick about 90 days after planting.

Pairs well with Green bean, Thai basil, and Honeoye strawberry.
