Cucurbita pepo
Classic fall harvest plant. Sprawling vines need room but reward with dramatic fruit.
Plant after last frost. Each vine needs 50–100 sq ft. Slip a piece of wood under fruit to prevent rot.
Flesh and cooked seeds are non-toxic to cats and dogs — plain canned pumpkin is a common digestive aid for pets.
Informational only — always check with a veterinarian if you suspect your pet has eaten something it shouldn't have.
