What's growing in my garden? I didn't plant it. It's just doing it's thing. It's also become one with the mystery tomato plant growing beside/in/on it.
Here's a picture of the flower if that helps
Everything about this plant is comically oversized

Acorn squash. Seeds will survive compost a lot.
I didn't add compost to this garden bed this year. I did throw all the household's veggie scraps into that bed during the winter so it likely came from there.
My new compost pile is even lazier this summer as I just throw layers of veggie scraps with layers of greens from my garden cuttings. I'm pretty sure there's more seeds in that pile somewhere.
Whatever happens, happens. Surprises are fun :)
I hear ya. We have a 1/4 acre of gardens. We have stuff pop up all over the place.
Isn't that how Poltergeist 1 started?
