What an inspiring garden berringamababe.
Thanks I think these squash thought they might try to be pumpkins! I spend about an hour a day on it - half an hour in the morning then again in the evening. So rewarding!!!!!

B,  love the photos.  Thanks.  What a great job you have done!!! We are still battling the Wombat,  so are planting in containers .  We have just picked our first Peony.

Halex I peel my over grown zucchini deseed them and cut them into thin slice like you would cut apple to stew.  I then add some sugar a little water and make 'mock apple pie'. No one believe's that it is zucchini, I freeze the leftovers for future apple pie or anything else I would use apple for.

The South West is copping a beating from a savage storm. I have so far lost 3 of my tomato plants my corn is laying flat to the ground and everything else is totally waterlogged.  Very sad :(

Thought I would give it a go at posting some photos of what I have grown so far.

Well the photos didn't work, so will have to try another time.

I have also had some success with celery but forgot to take a picture
