The weather here was atrocious over the Bank Holiday weekend .. gale-force winds and torrential rain .. so I was extremely concerned about my poor veggies struggling manfully up on the roof, exposed to the elements. But everything seems to be not just surviving, but thriving and I am so delighted (and relieved!)
Most of you know that I am growing heritage dwarf french beans (you can see previous posts about them
here). Well, I figured it must be time for another Bean Update, as we now have actual BEANS!! The beautiful deep dark purple variety haven't come out too well in the photo as I didn't want to disturb them, but are looking good.

Oh my goodness how exciting...looking good Hedgewitch.
The rain and wind was awful.....I have odd branches down but nothing too drastic......and the extra staking did the trick.
I can't believe you have beans ALREADY!
Mine haven't even started flowering yet ...
We are having the first sunny day here in AGES! The plants are loving the warmth ... we have all missed it!
hello nutty! its great how everything starts shooting up when the sun finally comes out, isn't it? its always such a gamble about the weather - i think i have been a bit lucky this year :-)
