We have our first crop of Lima Beans ever at Buzzard Roost, thanks to our folks who told us a good cultivar for our soil, Henderson Lima Beans! I love them and I am looking forward to the beans. We harvested our pintos today. Rain was in the forescast so we just pulled the plants and put them in the barn, and now we our pulling the beans off the vines and shelling. This will probably take all week!
Sunflowers are blooming like crazy. We plant them for the flower vase and our gold finches.
Corn has tassels!!!
Great news on the limas; ours are a week away, thank goodness. In spite of the rain (over 20 inches since June 20), or maybe because of it, pintos and kidneys and (split) tomatoes have almost overwhelmed us for the past week. Still much to come.
