Loofah is growing like crazy!

 The photo of the little loofah that I posted a mere four days ago has grown sooo much!  Look at this monster!  And here is a photo of the kind of beautiful flowers that have been blossoming all over the vines.  Will I get another loofah squash?  Who knows?  Color this late in the summer really makes me happy, though.

Have heard of these plants before but never found one to grow . Did you grow yours from seed or cutting ? Will have to look harder I think to find them . Love your blog

Thanks for the comment! But just wait - I've got new pictures and, if county fairs awarded blue ribbons for loofahs, I've got a winner!

In answer to your question, I got these as potted sprouts from Farmer John's table at Ward's Supermarket.
