A Garden With a Mind of its Own

From the looks of this it would be a great idea to hang around at your house.

Man, Myrl, that's some squash garden. This is what all of that rain in Sacramento produced this year. Overgrown gardens! Mine is the same!!

I bet you can't eat them fast enough. But them you have family you can pawn them off on. Beats dropping a pile of squash on somebody's doorstep, ringing the bell and running away.

Yum Myrl!!  I am hungry for some squash right now!  Can't believe they're taking over the spot - gorgeous.

Thanks for sharing your garden. Chef Dolores would love to have a squash surplus for her creations.

 It seems that your green thumb is working well Myrl Jeffcoat 

Myrl

Must be that old green thumb of yours. Have a great 4th and cheers cvc

Myrl

Myrl

Well it looks like your garden is growing . . . . and growing.

Good luck and success.

I've just never had a green thumb and done well with gardening. I'm so jealous! Enjoy!

Myrl

What, they have grow any since the last time I was here :-)) cheers cvc

Wow! That is quite a squash plant, Myrl Jeffcoat Wish I was close enough to stop by for lunch

My tomato plants are over seven feet tall. I have to spend time tomorrow tying them up. They are producing wildly. Enjoy yours.

@Good Morning Myrl Jeffcoat!

WOW! Your garden looks good and healthy and it's producing great vegetables too! 

Back when I lived in Chicago, there was an Italian family that visited frequently. We'd go to the woods and she'd pick plants from the forest; then go to my house and make fried Garduna. My father said it was wild rhubarb but the lady disagreed. Nontheless, she made it exactly the way Sandy Padula and Norm Padula, JD, GRI NMLS#1483386 described. It did taste good!

Once again, congratulations on getting good results in your garden. They are really BIG plants. Isn't it amazing what rain and climate change will do! I hope you have an abundance of tomatoes, squash, and zucchini too! Happy eating!!!

Wow!

My garden has a mind of its own also, but it's mostly weeds!

Myrl - i'm going to have to get some squash at the market!!! My mother would make a squash casserole with the yellow squash, milk, eggs,cheese and black olives. yum.

There are so many ways to prepare zucchini and yellow squash it never gets old. With those tomatoes, you have a great start to making one of my favorites, Ratatouille.

Myrl,

 I love squash and tomatoes nothing like a home grown tomatoe they just have a different taste than store bought, though I did score some nice tasting tomatoes this week at the grocery store!

WHOA! Now that's a HUGE squash plant, Myrl! 6 of these a day makes for some good pickled squash canning! I love your ideal of steaming them too but, I love me some pickled squash! LOL

Have a great week, Myrl!

OMG , Myrl Jeffcoat, your plants are amazing.  Wish I lived closer to you as I am sure you might offer me a squash and some yummy tomatoes. I love tomatoes and this is the very first year in my life that my tomatoe plants refuse to grow. A beautiful garden!!!!!!!!

Congratulations on your fantastic garden! That is one thing I will be missing with condo life...............
