UNEXPECTED 8 BALL

I cleaned out the garden debris in containers that have finished their life cycle. These are the containers I will use to plant fall crops.

One of them contained the plant for a new to me variety of squash that I was disappointed had produced no fruit.

It did though! I was surprised to find one squash on the plant!

What a cute little squash this is. It’s called an 8 Ball Squash. It is about 3″ round and is a nice glossy green. They are supposed to taste similar to a zucchini.

What a nice surprise.
