Growing Blue Prince Hybrid Pumpkin
‘Blue Prince’ is an award-winning hybrid pumpkin and 2020 All-America Selections Winner prized for its striking blue rind and excellent eating quality. Flattened, round fruits combine smooth blue skin with deep orange flesh that is tender, non-stringy, and savory sweet.
Start ‘Blue Prince’ indoors for transplanting. Plant seeds about 1 inch deep, space plants 3 to 4 feet apart, and grow in full sun. Plants are noted for good disease resistance.
