I hadn't intended to post today, since I had such a good run on the weekend. But something ever so exciting has happened in the vegie patch!!
BEANS!
I can't work out how these snuck up on us!! I saw the flowers when they first appeared.. maybe a week ago? But these beans came from nowhere! Do they grow really fast??
This isn't the only bean, either - there are a few on this little plant, and some gorgeous tiny beans on one of the other plants. I'm so pleasantly surprised - I thought the slaters had attacked the beans so bad that we wouldn't ever get beans. Still, better not count my chickens...

I love beans, they are so easy to grow and can over run the freezer. Also they are one of my most fav vegies:)
I can't wait for the day when we can grow vegies successfully enough to stock the freezer!
:)
Woot WOot! I wonder, are they the poppable pea beans!? How delish Bon! I wonder if Tess will try them by delicately plucking them off..? xo
hehe! :)
She would love to, but that's one of the reasons we got such tall raised beds - no dog interference :) She helps herself to the plum harvest each year though!
I think they're stringless runner beans, from memory.
