Here we call them LA. purple pod beans, for snap beans. The purple hull peas are for shelling. I like them because I can see them better. Turn green when cooked.

Here are some pictures of my garden this year. Late start and scaled back, but more than last year. Mrs. Foot and the inch and the millimeter are all on board. http://picasaweb.google.com/cellarfoot

You guys know how I like the Wisteria! Well here it is and the progress on the garden. We ate the first lettuce of the season and tonight my husband pulled some beets (thinning things out already). I am also adding the spot that I like to sit in under the wisteria in the outdoor kitchen. I think it's my favorite spot in the world right now.
:D
Oh and the poppies! Love 'em!

Looks good Foots , the sugar snap peas in our garden have done there do , we have gotten a hand full of cherry tomatoes, a few Zuks , some squash , the chile pepper plants are full , and the other Mater Plants are Full as well

Cool nights here has stopped my garden. Only some eggplants. loads of maters, but none getting ripe. No snap beans.

Got a big garden going again this year. Always plant more than I need, but it never goes to waste - what I don't eat or sell goes to the chickens. :)

For Cicero: Here's my wisteria. Got it free from Craigslist almost three years ago- had to dig the sucker up myself, but it was worth it. No blooms the first year. A few blooms the second year... and then a second mini-bloom (wtf?). And this year....

Nice place, Glinda!

The inch asked "Whose garden is that?"
"It's Glinda's"
"The good witch?"

Nice Glinda! The only thing missing under that wisteria is a chair! A great shady sitting spot!
:)

this thread is so intimidating.

My poor tomato plants are nothing compared to this.
