I have a row of baby bush limas that seem to be miraculously setting a third crop. Good thing too because the first two were complete failures. Less than a dozen limas total in two crops due to heat, drought and insects (grasshopper plague). But somehow they popped right back and look better than they ever did. Just will be a race to see what comes first...killing frost or third and only really productive crop.
