Hmmm What is it ?

well i decided to cut open this vegetable that was growing ,it said zucchini when i planted it or them ,,but it grew in to a round ball so i posted about it and as some of you guys know and helped me to identified it as maby a gem squash ... then i had someone say no its a new variety of zucchini they have been out for about 12 months ?
then just this past Sunday i spotted them at the market and sure enough it said round zucchini's .hmmm so i cut one open ,and i also cut a zucchini open and they both smelt the same but yet a very different sooo is it a squash or a round zucchini ? I'm confused anyhow thought id just share all that with you guys ...sure hope i haven't confused you guys to ;-o

  2. Ah! It looks like a 'squashed zucchini' lol!
    Hope it tasted nice. I might have a look in the garden centre next time I'm in the vicinity. Maa.

  3. I think I would ask at the green grocers. Take pictures along if you don't have a good specimen. It does look strange!
