It took a while to get going but is now marching across the lawn and growing up the fence trellis 10ft away! One big squash and several smaller ones coming, we just hope there is enough season left to grow the other ones out! It if planted next to a mixed bag of courgettes and squashes so who knows what the seeds will come out as next year - time to experiment!
