Pumkins... Or not.
I have six pumkin plants that are all growing like weeds in various spots and not a one of them has a pumkin growing. I check daily and see that the bees are doing their job but yet, no pumkins! I feel cheated:(
Maybe they are just the male flowers? Their are male and female, and only the females set fruit. Reaching into the distant past - something about stamens and pistols? Bet you that Jan Gruber could help you out - she is raising a giant pumpkin again this year.

Do you know if Laura is expecting puppies?
