babies

but for now we have some baby cinderella pumpkins growing- so named for the deep grooves and their squat-carriage-like appearance. these are having fun growing up a giant hedge, so let's hope we'll be able to find them all. did you know the flower that is still attached to the pumpkin is the female flower. Once it is fertilized by bees from the male flower it will wither off but if it isn't fertilized, no more baby pumpkin. these guys are looking pretty fruitful.
