Mom is double-check...Sitka: Aren't they COOL!!??! Mom is double-checking to make sure they aren't poisonous, then she'll let me try them!<BR/><BR/>Holly: It was nice of Aunt Janet to send it! Mom's never grown roses!<BR/>I just want the beanstalks as an escape route in case the Giant comes after us ... but we may be able to taste the beans!<BR/><BR/>China & Madie: I've tried getting roses (for Mom ... yeah, that's it .. for Mom) from some rose bushes in the neighborhood, and she doesn't seem to appreciate my efforts. Can you explain that? I can't!<BR/><BR/>Butchy & Snickers! Hey guys! Our butterfly weeds are orange flowering ones, too! Dave said they'll look pretty with the daisies!<BR/>Oh, yeah. The purple fountain grasses are an annual here, too. Mom has planted them a few years - she just loves them and said it's worth replanting them to her. She has all kinds of perrennial ones, but loves the color and height of these guys! <BR/>Mom is thinking about putting purple coneflowers in where some of the little dead blue fescue grasses are. Do they like constant sun and wind?<BR/><BR/>Texas: Thank roo! I've been supervising Mom real hard all season. The bunnies and the heat have been real challenging!<BR/><BR/>Maya Marie: I'm not sure we can grow ANYthing here in the winter. Unless maybe Amber has some SNOW SEEDS or something. Ha roo roo roo! Some of the grasses get really pretty plumage that looks cool in winter - we'll be sure to show you!<BR/><BR/>Joe Stains: I was on-lead for some reason. Go figure.<BR/><BR/>Sky: Oh, ouchie! Sorry to hear about your eye! Mom is always telling me to be careful where I put my snooter, but it's so HARD not to check everything out! I'll try to be more careful now that you've warned me!<BR/>We'd love to see all your roses!!!<BR/><BR/>Rudy: Hey, hey! Great to see you!<BR/>Oh, green beans! I love green beans! I want Mom to grow veggies! She said maybe a few things next summer. I hope she doesn't forget!<BR/>Like I told Butchy & Snickers, those purple fountain grasses are annuals here, too! They should make some that last longer!!!<BR/><BR/>Cubby: We didn't get many this year, but at least we have enough so we can re-plant next year!<BR/><BR/>Louka: Yeah, we still have days in the 90s here - but mornings in the 50s! Ah, that cool feels SO good! Hey - when is your birthday?!!?<BR/><BR/>GG: I think they're purple because they come from MAGIC beans! Once mom makes sure they won't make me sick, she'll let me try one. I can't wait!<BR/><BR/>Guinness & Shiloh: If you'd like some of our magic beans, let us know! Once they're dried, we can mail you some! That's what Aunt Janet did for us!<BR/>The heat took a toll on everything here (and Oswald & company). Our next-door neighbor has a big veggie garden (with a bunny fence around it!) and he shared some tomatoes and peppers with us! Mom gave them some herbs. We thought it was REALLY nice of the neighbor - Mom & Dad said they are the BEST tomatoes they've had this year. I didn't get to try any - can you believe that? Hrumph!<BR/><BR/>Play bows,<BR/>ZimThe Army of Fourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12430214230146328389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31331580.post-43114042789325393932007-09-26T04:34:00.000-05:002007-09-26T04:34:00.000-05:00Purple beans!

Not much fruit on them tomatoes but the butternut squash went crazy. only about 2 green peppers and one and only 1 japanese eggplant. We think the bee shortage did it, but who knows.

Although it's getting hot here again, for some odd (and not appreciated) reason, all the leaves are turning bewooooooootiful colours and the plants are starting to go to sleep. They'll be getting frost where my #1 harem member lives, soon, just an hour north of town. I hope we get frost for my birthday... It's amazing to see that your growing season is continuing!Loukahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14542059168289932594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31331580.post-17579904271396556082007-09-25T22:32:00.000-05:002007-09-25T22:32:00.000-05:00It is so exciting that you have beans!
