volunteer squash

volunteer butternut 032 Here's the fruit on the volunteer squash plant that came up in the middle of my onion patch. Looks yummy! A big buttercup. Another one is forming now. The vine is enormous. I think I may save seeds from these vigourous squashes. (Then I can pant them where I want them next year.)

  3. I love volunteers! I have a volunteer tomato that has grown in full shade. I transplanted it to a sunnier spot 2 weeks ago. It's the middle of winter here and the plant is nearly a foot tall! Can't wait till it warms up and I find out what sort of tomato it is.
