With the right weather, watering, and feeding, marrows can become truly gigantic; competitive marrow-growing is very much a part of Wallace's Yorkshire culture.Peter


We're running a virtual marrow competition at Downsizer, based solely on length. Hate to say it but they don't stand a chance I've got the longest marrow I've ever seen developing on one of my plants.

My favourite way to eat marrow is boiled, mashed, loads of butter, black pepper and nutmeg. Great with any meat, especially lamb. Makes a good veggie curry too.
