In the row that had a mesclun salad mix, one of the items in the mix of lettuces is still growing. I don't know the name of it. Camouflaged amongst the leaves is a visitor. Can you see him?
It's not easy being green. |
It looks like if he could talk, he's say, "Leave me alone." |

This afternoon I worked up a row and planted some beans. The other day I planted a row of Contender Green beans. Today I planted my favorite green bean of all, Italian Roma green beans. They are flat and are so delicious!

I dug a hole in the row about an inch deep and dropped one bean seed in every six inches. It worked out perfectly and if all goes according to plan, in 55 days we should be harvesting plenty of these wonderful beans.
Unlike the Contender green beans, these are white and egg shaped. |
And here is the finished row. I turned under a bunch of white Dutch clover in this row, so there should be plenty nitrogen to get these beans kick started.
