We take the beans:


Make a nice bed with a support like this:


Or like this:



Green plants appear and grow:



Then, they bloom:




Then, we have new beans.



But what is going on there, under the ground, in the dark?

This is what is going on:

  1. Hi~~ Beans are the seeds I used when teaching my kids about growing things. Their size makes them easier to observe. Cute post.

  6. Hi Tatyana

    Teepee time.

    I love the way bean shoots almost uncurl out of the pod.

    Sometimes, when they're planted too shallow the bean almost lifts out of the soil.

  9. Lovely pictures of the bean life cycle. I remember growing beans in a glass jar when I was a child because you could see them growing so well. And I still like planting beans because the plants which come up look so good and strong as soon as they come out of the earth.
    The Russian piroshki look good!
    Thanks for visiting my blog.
