Between the two, flowers and beans




 

 

 


 
matured winged bean.


Flowers will end up as beans, but at times I love the flowers more
and
how I wish they stay a lot longer,
with their soft beautiful
bluish purple color.

  6. Yes, those flowers are so lovely. Probably will make a nice compliement with sweet pea flowers, the shades of pink and purple will surely make a good colour mix.

  8. Hey that's a nice flower too. I like the shape and crisp texture of wing bean but I didn't realise that the flower is quite attractive too. Nice pictures. Happy gardening!

  10. I think vegetable can be just as striking as ornamentals plus they're a two in one. First you get the flowers and then you get the harvest.

    Beans somehow has similar flowers, shape and colour. The plant at present is blooming mad. With the previous experience, I am really counting days. The plant is giving out their best, to produce flowers and beans. A happy time for gardeners, but soon the plant will weaken, leaves turning yellow and dry up...

    Am I going to through a weird phase in life, instead of happily picking beans, I am now paying more attention to the flowers and wishing them stay longer....

    We normally pick beans just before lunch during weekends.. They are so fresh and crunchy. Sorry, I am poor at describing TASTE.... haha.

    Cheers, Have Fun
