green beans!

I've given up on the Peas ever emerging in the garden; went ahead and put some Tomatoes in their space yesterday. Almost given up on the seed-packet Green Beans I direct-planted; they soaked too long and got stinky I'm afraid they were ruined. But delighted to find the Beans I planted in windowsill cardpots from my saved seed have begun sprouting, and how quickly they grow! Just yesterday only a few elbows were barely poking out of the soil surface
and now the leaves are all starting to unfold:

    Your climate is so different from mine! I can't grow them in fall- they like our summer weather. Are you actually able to grow stuff all year round?

    Yep! Aside from maybe late December, early January, no problems at all...but even then, I had carrots and turnips that did really well! And my herbs just never die...they grow all year round :)
