Yellow summer squash and zucchini
I planted a yellow summer squash next to a zucchini this year.
I didn't realize that there might be cross pollination.
I think the result is pretty and they taste fine. Apparently some other creature likes them too because I have found several with chunks out of them.

That is pretty funny, who knows what's going on in the garden when you aren't watching?

Re: Yellow summer squash and zucchini
I don't know what that means but it sounds like something not good. Does this mean we shouldn't be eating them?

Re: Yellow summer squash and zucchini
No it's totally fine. It's like when you have pink asters and the colour reverts to purple. It's just a thing that makes it revert to what a parent would have looked like!

Great. I think I have reversion virus. I swear my mom looks back at me from the mirror each morning!
