I don't recall a fused zuchini before. Probably the blossoms fused just like tomatoes? Or? I'm considering letting the seed develop to grow out next year...

Nice. I hope it turns out well if you grow them. I had wonderberries do that once (with three fused fruits), but the seeds grew plants with regular fruit. I'm pretty sure it can be genetic, though.

I had a cherry tomato that had 10 locules one year; it's still waiting on me to grow the seeds.

A two-fer! I think I've had just one of those before and it was a yellow straightneck. Pretty color. Is that one of the "gray" zucchinis?

Yeah those are grey. I think it was ferry morse seed, definitely from walmart last year. A little saturated with the flash maybe. They look nice and the leaves get those grey splotches on them too. The fruits are typically shorter and fatter than a typical black beauty or fordhook. I saved seed last year from a mixed patch and only planted the saved grey this year, and they all look true enough. Well, except this double. We're about two weeks into the crazy summer squash growth period right now, so there are plenty of others. Starting to see squash bug eggs this week.

Daytime photos- It's a shame that fennel is gone. It must have froze out in January. That spot gets cold, only a few hours of sun there in the winter. It was up with the red rhubarb.

I've grown the gray before. 'Grayzini' I think. For awhile it outproduced the regular zukes. Pretty foliage too.

That’s Awsome I have been getting the same thing this year different variety but mine has 2 flower heads on each stem for male flowers and 2 flower heads on a 2 fused zucchini never seen anything like it growing good so far.

Wow that puts a whole other twist on "zucchini loaf".

That's great, so you actually are seeing the odd formation first. I rarely look closely at the flowers.

Zuchini loaf, sounds like a need a recipe for that Bower.

@JRinPAyes I'am I took pictures of it cause I couldn’t believe it there on my green ones and yellow. Definitely ready to make zucchini bread !!

I had this happen a few years ago with a bottle gourd, and I saw the blossom because I look for the female blossoms because I pretty much have to hand pollinate them, since they open late, after the bees are in. It looked really strange, when I saw it, but I pollinated both sides, and here's what happened:

I've seen peppers like this, and tomatoes, but never saw the blossoms from the beginning, like this one!

Update - just harvested this today:
