Courgette or not ????
« on: May 12, 2010, 20:52 »
Hi I bought what was labelled as a courgette from b&q (lazy this year ) however as its growing I am becoming less and less sure that it is actually a courgette.

my plant has medium sized round leaves that are slightly furry a bit like a geranium leaf does anybody have any ideas what it might be ?

I have taken pics but not sure how to get them on her,

Thanks in advance
First year growing, so far, so good.

oh good its just that I thought courgettes had leaves similar to a cucumber and on the kitchen gardener Alys looked very similar cucumber plants, guess I will cross my fingers and hope  :)

Different varieties of courgette have slightly different leaves when they are very small. Some of mine are quite velvetty and other rougher --- and they have all been labelled all along so are not mix muddled  :)
