Amazing Garden Bean Crop




I had featured in past posts the above picture that I had incorrectly labeled as "pea flowers".  Instead it's for yard long beans, also known as snake beans.  I guess it pays to mind my own garden markers to know what I'm taking photos of (smile).

The garden on the side, those are the beans in the middle of the first planting bed.

Beans on the vines.
Here are the amazing beans that are produced after the pretty flowers fade.  They definitely earn their names.  We've been harvesting daily these beans and after I clean them I cut them to bite size and add them to the bags of beans in the freezer. 

The girls with the beans gives perspective on how big they are

These are growing SO WELL they are definitely keepers in my future Florida garden plans.

Happy Gardening.
