Bush beans

A new batch. The first lot have died off after being very productive.



The leftmost two tyres are "Contender", planted about a week ago using beans from some dried out pods saved from the first batch planted last year. On the right is a tyre of "Star 2000".

The Contender look pretty healthy - all of them came up except one. Maybe I should stagger plantings?

Update 2016/02/04:


The Star 2000 looks pretty pathetic. Might turn it over and replant with Contender in a week or two.

Lots of little beans...


... and a few medium size ones.


Time to plant the next batch. Getting a bit late in the year, but let's see what happens.

Broken the surface.
