someone mentioned courgettes above - esp the bush type. If you put these in, space them out because they really grow big and bushy.

One great tip with them - there is a female flower and a male flower on each plant. At any one time there will be many male flowers (very long stem where the flower is at leaf height) and one or two female flowers (down at the base, where the courgette will grow).

Well, when the male flower starts to curl up (ie has spent his pollen), cut it off... if you have about 5 plants, you'll always have loads of spent male flowers at any one time.

Now, make a *very very* light batter mix (very little flour), dip the flowers in the batter then deep fry them for 30 seconds.
Sprinkle with salt and eat as aperitif with a lovely crisp dry white. They are frikken amazing and are guaranteed to have everyone ask 'wtf are they, they're delicious' ;)
