terrace max said...

Hmmm yes, slight mix up with date format thingy. And my time setting was Hawaii-Aleutian time. Exotic, eh?

Wardy said...

Max

Dwarf bean Californian Wonder??Where d'yer get the seed. I wanted some and would prefer dwarfies but only found the climbing variety.

Ta

Wards

terrace max said...

Wardy,

Confused now: my Canadian Wonder beans are from HDRA. They don't specify dwarf or climbing although they're in 'Beans - French' rather than 'Beans - Climbing'. It was the description that made me think they were dwarf:

"Bushy habit, vigorous and prolific with bright green flat pods."

I suppose you could have a bushy climber though...! Can you wait until next month and I'll let you know for sure?

Wardy said...

I reckon they'll be big uns Max. I can feel it in me watter! Don't know whether to get any now. Ho hum ...

terrace max said...

Errrmm Wardy - I checked the packet. I realise I should have done this sooner but the packet was upstairs and I was downstairs and.. anyway, the packet says DWARF!! Get yer watters checked and yer order in!!

Wardy said...

Wow! Brilliant!! Thanks - I'll get some ordered. Me own chilli beans wow. Did you get em from the Organic Gardening catalogue then???

terrace max said...

Yup. I surely did.

You can't just buy one packet of seeds. Maybe some Burgundy Red Okra for the greenhouse, or some more French Beans: Aiguillon are meant to be the bestest.

Wardy said...

Ta for that! Been and had a look already but like you say can't just order the one packet. Here I go again. Gulp

Wardy said...

Well gone and done it! Sent in yet another bloody seed order. Swore I wouldn't. Anyway I just had to cos wanted them beans, and that spinach, ooh and just had to have the okra you told me about. Then there were endives for winter and kales for hungry gaps. Oooooh eck .......

terrace max said...

Seeds are like kids - you just CAN'T have too many. Both offer
such reward for so little initial outlay. A little food, water and tlc is all they need. Apart from flashing trainers - the kids I mean...

Actually, they're not really that comparable are they? Except you can leave them out on a cold night to toughen them up a bit...

Anyway, well done Wardy. You make me feel slightly maniacal seed-wise. Got any Namenia yet?

Wardy said...

No I bloody well 'aven't! So shurrup!! LOL

Well apart from that miniscule order to Fothergills for something else I simply couldn't live without, then the shallots were just to cheap to refuse

Oh and Flo was just passing Franchi so stopped off just on the off-chance they'd have those swanky beetroot chioggias. Can't live without those can I!

terrace max said...

Got any Sessantia?

Anyway, got my latest seeds of Italy order: 4 new radicchios, a yugoslavian parsnip and errm... salsify.

Cheaper than a round of drinks.
