In which the gourd vine tells me it is really, really happy just hanging up in the air. Noted. I am loving those flowers in that otherwise-drab back corner.
I’m now hoping that instead of buying gourds for my Samhain altar, I will have grown a few instead. And these are edible too, so if I want to get all curcurbity, then I shall.
Curcurbit is also the name for the lower part of an alembic.
