Notes

Organic Black Beauty zucchini, purchased from Garden Harvest Supply (www.gardenharvestsupply.com). I was trying to companion-plant it with the Glass Gem corn, but it was quickly overshadowed and crowded out. I've seen a few flowers but no fruit. I must be the only gardener in the world who has failed to grow zucchini! :( (You can see a few leaves in the lower left corner of this photo)
