Thank you so much Willi.

so excited to plant these beautiful beans. Bet they would make a great wall beside the hot tub.

Hey August 95–Those are Scarlet Runner Beans. They grow on a vine that can reach 15 feet tall or more and do best when planted in full sun and when the soil is pretty warm. I usually plant mine at the very end of May.

Hi Willi, I have some of these wonderful beans that you have pictured above. They were given to me by a friend and have not information about them at all.

Do you have any idea what they are called?

Linda Susanna–Wow! I’d love to see some photos of the vegetables once you’ve grown them. Good luck with them.

Marget–I know there were a few other Canadians interested in swapping. Maybe you could set up a swap up there!

Grace–I am having exactly the same problem choosing a recipe!

Dee–I’m so glad that you signed up. And I agree, the cards are beautiful.

Sonrie–Thanks for joining the swap. I can’t wait to find out who my partner will be.

Hi Willi, I’ve been reading your site for a while now and saving all the interesting bits. Just read your about your recipe & seed swap this morning. Oooh….What a swell idea and how I wish I could join the swap too. Just came back from a holiday in Thailand and I bought seeds from both Thailand and China which I obtained at the Burmese (now known as Myanmar) border. I picked the seeds based on the pictures since I couldn’t read the 2 languages, then later my Chinese friend told me that some of the vege are meant for spring/autumn.
I live in sunny Malaysia. I wonder- is there anyone else from this region who would like to swap?
My contact is linda_susanna@yahoo.com.

Willi-

This is really hard! How do I choose just one; there are so many possibilities! Green Tomato and Sausage Pie? Spinach Quiche? Butternut Squash Risotto? Anything Pizza?

I think I’ll just choose the one with the shortest growing season, for this year and hope that we’ll all do it again next year.
