Know what this is? ![[Linked Image]](http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m320/WildCityWoman/SoupMix2.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m320/WildCityWoman/SoupMix.jpg) I know what it is - I just want to see if anybody else can tell. Here's a hint . . . it only cost me about 35 cents to seed it.

Heh! Heh! It's a half pack of dried soup mix! I just put it in the pot in early spring, mixed it around in the soil and let it grow . . . It won't flower, of course, 'cause it's not fertilized.

Your blossom looks like its on a pea plant. We use to plant peas and that is what that is. it looked like there was a bean plant of some sort in there too. very interesting.

It's a mix of stuff - literally - a package of dried soup mix!
Messy looking, but I like the way it's grown.

I don't think it will fruit, Tamara - flowers surprised me, but I don't think it would fruit - the distributors don't process soup mixes for planting like they do with seeds meant for gardening. But we'll see.

If it flowers it'll set fruit.
