Hi Cynthia,

I'm curious about "all bean flowers being edible". I thought that the Castor bean plant would be an exception, since the leaves on this plant are toxic. Can you elaborate on this a bit, so that children will not sample beans from this plant, if it's bean is also toxic? Thank you Cynthia, Judy (Doe Run Farm, Tn.)

Mike, we get those from Renee's Garden Seeds.

Could you please tell me where I can find seed for the painted lady beans you grow ? Thanks Mike

These are such beautiful beans...my friend grew them last year and the vines got 6-8 feet tall!

Matron prides herself on not growing flowers, but when I look hard at vegetable flowers they are just so beautiful. I have runner bean flowers in white, cream, salmon and red at the moment - stunning!

I don't think I have told you how much i love your website! Thank you so much. I have a plethora of soon to be ripened tomatoes because I followed just a quarter of your fabulous instructions. Thank you!

they really are beautiful.

If you close your eyes and eat the different flowers, can you tell the difference between the colors?

I never knew you could eat bean flowers! Don't you just love how vegetables are a constant surprise?
