I planted these seeds a few days ago. They usually come up one here, one there, but never all on the same day! Nothing was there last evening when I tucked my gardens in, and this morning almost every single one was up and greeting the day.

In front of the pole are purple hyacinth beans.
Behing the pole are scarlet runner beans.
I grow them together each summer on this arbor for my hummers -
they love both flowers.

Alright....so now you are inviting audiences in and end with a shower of blooms?? I do want to see the arbor when the plants are a bit more mature? Please?

so what are they? purple hyacinth bean vine? they look great! I planted a couple and they didn't sprout :-( maybe cuz I let them dry out durh!

MissJamie ~ how long ago did you plant the purple hyacinth bean? It can take a while for them to sprout. Last year I thought none of them would, it took so long!

I got some of those scarlet runner beans
and mine still haven't sprouted....


I had gotten some of the purple one's from
Renee too two years ago, and they never sprouted
either, but I think it's too cold when I try to
start them in the greenhouse, and by the time
warms up to really start them, they're aren't
much for starting anymore...

Make sure you keep me posted on how your's do,
I really want to see that scarelet runner bean
and how it turns out..

well lets see I think it was about a month or so ago that I planted them? oh well I'm gonna replant some if I can find what I did with the dang things!

Update on vines today. Something is eating holes in them though!

woah those are the same one's?! they sure did get big quick!!!
