Actually, I stole these seeds. I was standing under this lush canopy of vines growing over an arbor. The seed pods were hanging down like green beans.
I do not know what the plant was but I'll call it "Jack The Beanstalk".
So I said to Jack, "Take a deep breathe, I'm gonna pull." And I did.
Jack was tough, he did not even flinch.
The pod held three very hard seeds. I scratched the seeds a little with sand paper and soaked them overnight. They are tucked into a warm soil mix in a clay pot. Hopefully they will get rambunctious and propagate when I am not looking. In nine months we will know for sure if they have a boy or a girl.
These are a few of the seeds I plant every year around the telephone pole.
Sunflowers, and morning glories. I plant different varieties of sunflower because I like a mix of heights when they bloom. I always wanted to be tall myself, but I am what I am. Maybe I was planted too deep?
Make this a memorable Memorial Day weekend. Plant a seed.
Or just steal one!
