I can't imagine putting in a garden this early!! We can put in some cool weather plants but I was never into starting this early.
Your garden looks so nice!! I think that the squash that you're looking for is called yellow crookneck. It doesn't have a long vine but is rather bush like. It grows like zucchini.

Yep, that bushy squash is what I need! We have to put in our gardens early because of the heat in July/Aug - the plants just will not produce when it gets so hot here. We try to get it in early enough to get harvest in May/June and then we'll plant again in Sept. for a November harvest.

I found the bushy squash today. It is called straight neck squash and the vining one is called crook neck squash (at least that is what the labels said - it better be right!).
Today I planted the straight neck squash, dill, rosemary, oregano, and parsley.

How wonderful Gayle. Fresh veggies are so delicious. I would love to be able to just go pick what I wanted to eat. Good for you!

Judy, you could probably get some flower boxes and plant a few veggies for you to pick. How cool would that be?

I didn't know that. I don't think that the crook neck squash has much of a vine though. It's what I used to plant. They both taste the same and that's what counts!!!! If you have a bumper crop you may have to mail some out to us!!!
