As is traditional, let's have a Pumpkin & Tromba competition.
You can decide for yourself the category you're entering - largest, heaviest, longest, smallest, funniest - no rules, just somewhere to show off.

I’ll play. Well actually I’ll be cheating. I’m only growing a small variety of squash this year. I’ll definitely be showing off if it produces anything. As that will be a big improvement on the pitifully effort it produced last year.
Builder that would like to go play in the garden.

I'm growing lots of pumpkin and squash. I mean unless they decide against. It seems like the only tromba seed to germinate has crawled back into its shell

I'll have to check my seed stash, but if need be I'm sure the budget will stretch to some fresh seeds, so count me in!

Just checked those Tromba's look too 'Snakelike' and send shivers up my spine, so I will give them a miss! Pumpkins yes, Tromba';s NO!

No pumpkins here, not even a tromba, although I might change my mind. I'm experimenting with a new one, a Serpente di Sicily to climb up the climbing frame.

Serpent di Sicilia is very similar to tromba - so you're in!
