no pattypans

[shirlton]

There was I looking everyday for the fruits in case they grew too big to be palatable. I was wasting me time cos although there are loads of flowers there are no fruits as yet.Our Bunjy has none on heres either.

If you have male and female flowers you could try hand pollinating ???

Either pull off the male flower and rub it into the female flower ... or use a paintbrush ????  :-\

[shirlton]

My patty pan (Real Seeds) is exactly the same.  d**n fine looking plant.  d**n fine looking male flowers.  No females at all >:(

Got mine from Real Seeds too. I must just give them a call and find out what to do. Their customer service is very good

My patty pan from Seeds of Italy have only just starting to produce fruit. I felt like the only one on the allotment not getting a courgette as I only grew these this year. I have only one plant that is a nice size and producing the others are smaller and looking sad really.

Mine are all leaf and no flower also!  Pah.

I'm so pleased that I'm not the only one without pattypans

I had two which are now eaten :P. There is one more tiny one, but that seems to be it. Butternuts aren't very fruitful either, only got two from three plants. I had 6 last year. from 1 plant.
