Sow in warm, well-drained soil and lightly cover. Transplant after frost into full sun, spacing well to encourage branching. Plants appreciate consistent moisture and benefit from staking once the fruit begins to develop. Harvest when the fruits turn deep orange; cut stems long for arrangements. Allow stems to dry upright for long-lasting décor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFAQ\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eQ: Do the little “pumpkins” on \"pumpkin on a stick\" stay orange after drying?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes!
