The gift of the bean seed....

Earlier this year I ran across this post at Frugal Little Bungalow Small Space Living....and I commented on it.  She was kind enough to share and this is the result.
I am not showing the Hyacinth bean plant--it is growing wild and I love that part.  But there is something eating on all the leaves.  I have dusted it with Sevins and it does not seem to slow it down.
And yes, these are all from the same plant.  I don't know if they varied colors has to do with the age of the bloom or the amount of light they get or what.
But every day I go out there and look at it and admire its loveliness, and I think of Deb!

  3. I think these beans have such lovely blossoms. I have planted them but our season here is shorter than yours so they bloom for a very short time before succumbing to frost.

  9. Varied shades of color on one plant - so pretty! I really love that deep pinkish-purple, though. So nice of her to share. :)
