I planted seven dwarf runner beans (not dwarf beans) in pots which are on the window sill.. Four are lovely, sturdy little plants while the other three haven't bothered at all but I can wait.

Somebody rung me just now to see how the beans were!

I know my place.

Look, I have three tiny beans who are too frightened to come up Calling them dwarf beans when they are dwarf runners is not going to help in any way.

My sister planted some carrot seeds - nothing appeared, so she planted another row.
Then the first ones decided to appear.
I shall be visiting her when her carrot glut occurs :-D
