‘Million Suns’ sanvitalia
Introduced by Benary, a wholesaler; available at garden centers

“Pretty yellow-flowered groundcover that bloomed nonstop. There was absolutely no need to deadhead. That’s my kind of plant!” —Barbara Miller, Boulder, Colorado
‘Kumi Kumi’ squash
Source: Nichols Garden Nursery
Eat this dual-purpose vegetable young, green, and tender, like a summer squash; or let it mature to orange and develop a hard rind, like a winter squash.
“Awesome! They looked great hanging on the vine, and when we put them out for Halloween, we got many comments about the ‘cool pumpkins.’” —Nan Sterman, Encinitas, California
