What is the deadline for sending my seeds? I am having a little difficulty locating small envelopes or bags. I will hunt more this weekend.

I'm writing to say thank you for the seeds I received in this swap. This year I got the Lima beans planted. Many of them failed, but some did ok. Yay! I am super pleased. This was just what I needed to get a genetically diverse population started that might have some hope of adapting to my garden.
So thanks again! |

Joseph,
For cold tolerance, you may want to do a search for lima beans NY305 (Geneva) and NY 315. If you only enter the search terms "lima" and "Geneva", you'll get flight schedules between Switzerland and Peru. I still have one flowering lima bean plant in the garden, that doesn't know it's days are over very soon. Last edited by Tormato; November 7, 2017 at 02:33 PM. |

What was that big shelly that Dar grew a few years back? Cant remember the name but he finally ordered it somewhere. Huge, light colored seeds.

Gigandes, a runner bean.
There is a recipe for them where they are breaded and baked. |

I'm about half done sorting my bean collection, along with adding the beans coming in. I'll be posting the MMMM bean list, hopefully, sometime next week.
