Only one seed

10-5-10 amazed brain

Back in spring I planted one small gourd seed next to the shed out back at the KC house. Nothing seemed to be happening for the longest time. Finally, late summer a vine started to grow.

WOW was I surprise to see how it had taken over one corner of the backyard. I have spotted at least 8 gourds growing of various sizes. I am such an accidental gardener.



I can't wait till harvest time to see all what we have under these vines. I am wondering are these types of gourds good for anything beside making bird houses. Maybe painting these can be the next Girls Weekend art Project?

  1. I love your gourds :D. Could you save me some seeds from this year's bounty? I'd love to grow some of those for the grandkiddos to paint or whatever.
