Cucumber and Squash Flowers!

Here are a few pictures of flowers my vegetable plants are producing. Unfortunately I am not getting any male and female flowers open at the same time, so no veggies growing yet. :(

I do have some sweet 100 tomatoes growing but they are so small it is hard to get a good picture. Will update once more progress has been achieved. lol.

If your not getting both male and female blooms, then make the best of the situation and have some stuffed or sauteed squash blossom for dinner.

Yep. The blossoms are perfectly edible. As said stuffed or sauteed. Also a nice light batter and a quick swim in the deep fryer is delightful.
