Giant Zucchini!
I came across this amazing specimen quite by accident. I used the makeshift parking lot across the street from my druggist. The lot was nearly full and I had no recourse but to leave my car at the edge of this lot. It was when I got out of my car that I noticed this zucchini plant for the first time. On closer inspection, I realized that it was the largest such plant I’d ever seen in my life! I took three photographs of it with my iPhone 11.
This is my first submission to any of Cee’s Challenges in a few weeks. Circumstances at home have been less than ideal. I am sorry to report that my father-in-law Theodore, known affectionately to us as “TR,” passed away on the 9th of October. It has been very sad here.
This is but one example of the enormous zucchinis that this plant produced. There were no small zukes. As a matter of fact, there is a Chinese restaurant across the alley from this plant. I would be shocked if there hadn’t been harvesting zucchinis from this plant. Of course, when zukes get this size, they are completely inedible.
At this point in the season, there were only two blossoms on the plant. This is one of them. If you look at the first photo, you can see them both from a distance.
Beautiful Photographs
