Ah, Baby Bean has grown up, and has cousins and siblings – I can’t tell which unless I trace the vines from the roots, and there are 8 of them! So let’s just call them relatives, and leave it at that. Here are a couple of shots for the family album:
This kind of gives a new meaning to the term "family tree"... Spot the cousins/siblings? There are two of them.
I'm guessing this is the largest it'll grow, but for curiosity's sake, I'm going to leave this one on the vine to grow as big as possible, and so I can get more seeds later. It's also the only one this size, and I prefer to eat more than one bean at a time, so I'll just wait for the rest that are growing at the same pace before I harvest them... :|
