Butternut Squash

During early summer I noticed some Butternut Squash plants for sale.  I had not seen these before so I bought two, one for my friend and one for me.  I don't have a greenhouse, so mine has had to survive outdoors.  My friends plant took off in his greenhouse and mine just plodded along.  Now, at last, mine have flowered.  I have two super flowers and the beginnings of small fruit forming.  I am so pleased!

What happened to my friends plant?  Well, his was eaten by something in his greenhouse!!! Sad  :) !
