Our next-door neighbor, only several feet away, has a new patch growing. It is right outside our back door. Do you know what it is?
Here are some blooms as a hint.
It's a pumpkin patch, a very tiny one. And it has pumpkins! I think fall is here!
This pumpkin is purple!
“In a corner of the
field, a tiny pumpkin patch grows—quietly magical, stubbornly joyful, and just
big enough to hold a dream.”

Very cool 😎 Ginny. Hurrah for Autumn 🍂 and pumpkins. I love ❤️ the colours of this season and of course the harvest of my favourite root vegetables....Rutabaga, for example. It is a purple 💜 and yellow 💛 Swedish turnip that pairs very nicely with carrots.
How wonderful and that’s a very interesting pumpkin.
Nothing says the arrival of autumn quite like the surprise of pumpkins growing just outside your door
How cool. Many years ago I planted pumpkins. I don't think we got very many and the ones we did get didn't get very big. It was fun watching to see them grow though
I love that Fall is nearing the corner...and for sure, pumpkin patches scream it's time!! We do have cooler weather on the way and wow, I am so appreciative. Enjoy the Holiday weekend...
Yes, Fall is right around the corner. Love seeing pumpkin patches.
wow, at first I thought it is a squash, the leaves are a lot like squash leaves. peter Peter purple pumpkin eater ha ha ha
Our little pumpkin patch, gave up the ghost this summer because it was just too hot. I’ve only been successful once. Love the pumpkins! I’ve eaten zucchini blossoms but never had pumpkin blossoms- I wonder if they are as good?
A purple pumpkin? That's a new one on me Ginny. Great photos!
Fall here too and I LOOOOOOVE it!
The leaves do look like squash and a pumpkin is from that family. Maybe its a heirloom pumpkin.
How fun to hav it right near you so you can watch the growth.

Fun to grow pumpkins. They sure take up a lot of room though.
Are you telling me it is fall where you are? Oh my. We are still in summer here. Love pumpkins and fall.
Neat! I thought it looked related to squash. :)
That was most definitely my guess! PUMPKINS!
