“Are all flowers supposed to have a zuke under it?”

Zukes (all squashes) have both male and female flowers. The female flowers produce the squash. The males release their pollen, then fall off the face of the earth and never call you again, LOL!

Thank you, I figured there was a logical explanation. Makes sense the guys just pollinate and leave.
