I will leave a couple pods on the plant for you.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07743102355360873845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28216161.post-63449459821061863252009-05-19T07:07:00.000-04:002009-05-19T07:07:00.000-04:00Wow, everything looks beautiful in your garden. I...Wow, everything looks beautiful in your garden. I've been checking mine daily and a little disappointed. We try to plant something new every year. This year, we planted a row of lima beans. They have not sprouted and have been in for several weeks. Could it be that it was too cold? Should I try putting another row in next to them? The green beans are not sprouting as well either. We are also growing fennel for the first time. About half of those seeds came up.<br /><br />Think I'll replant all of the above both again. <br /><br />Again, love your blog and checking to see what's up in your garden every day!Reenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13135195331075251471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28216161.post-20405556868576553222009-05-18T22:36:00.000-04:002009-05-18T22:36:00.000-04:00My favas produced for a LONG time last year.

I made two sowings last year: on March 18 and April 11. <br /><br />I guess I'm way behind this year as I just made my first sowing a couple weeks ago. <A HREF="http://carletongarden.blogspot.com/search?q=Vicia%20faba" REL="nofollow">fava beans</A>I'd LOVE some crimson seed!

I have heard summer heat can do them in? Mine are about 12" high and are flowering, the crimson ones are so nice. I can save you some seed if you are interested.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07743102355360873845noreply@blogger.com
