2014 Mostly Mystery 'Mater Mailing - Page 23

salix · December 13, 2014

Oh my, you have been very busy Gary. What a list! Will indicate which beans and peas are of interest to me, seems like a lot but know that most may not be available after your round robin.

Beans: Flamingo, Tarbais Pole, Gold of Bacau, Canada (Wild) Goose, Magic Carpet garbanzo

Peas: Amish Snap, Sugar Daddy

Thank you for your mighty efforts, you must have quite a 'system'.

Gary - what an enormous list of beans! I never knew there were so many.

If possible, I would love to try these beans:
--Christmas Lima
--Purple Podded Pole

Thanks so much!

Near the bottom of the thread there are three lists...beans (A-M), peas, and beans (N-Z). Some of these (depending on number of packs to round robin swap requests) will be available to MMMM participants.

And, more for here...

lettuce Red Romaine
allium Onion Chives
pea Oregon Sugar Pod

Nothing like a little variety in the garden.

May I please try (if available):
sugar ann pea
sugar lace II pea
crimson flowered fava
super sugar snap pea
Oregon giant pea
lanto's fava

Thank you so much,

Rick

Hi Gary,
Thank you for extending your offer to beans/peas. My small attempt didn't work last fall.
I'd like to try any thing that would be good to eat straight off the vine, or tossed in a quick stir fry. I don't have a stove at my summer garden location.
Thank you again!

Gary, that is a lot of legumes. I'm thinking you either own a huge warehouse / barn or you are now sleeping on beans?

Hmm, a beanbag bed - would have sold well back in the 70s.

We planned to buy legumes locally in 2015, so we can say we grew what is suggested for our area. If there is a bean swap next year - I'll be sending some grown in Texas 8A legumes your way.

But still, there are a lot of tempting legumes on that list you shared with us. I'll ask for some next year for the 2016 garden.

I'd also love to try some Jembo Polish, if there is any left over. I've been eyeballing that variety for two seasons now, but Remy is always out when I go to order. I swear I'm going to have to pounce on it when she restocks

Hello Gary,

If any of the melon - Collective Farm (Woman?) is available, I'd love to try some. And the Frank's Dill. But if not, I'm sure I'll have plenty in the mail otherwise!

Thank you for all of your work on this Gary!

I would be very grateful for a few seeds of Golden Sweet or Opal Creek peas if they are available.

LindyAdele · December 15, 2014

Gary - if any are still available, I would be grateful for any fresh-eating pea or bean!

Hi Gary, I have been trying to find:

jembos polish
Blue Shackamaxon

The Blue Shack. for a very long time. Please Please! Will you put them in my package! If you can't I understand and these ones sound nice too:

Seneca Speckled Egg
white rice
Lina Sisco's Bird Egg

I really hope there are extra to spare of Blue Shackamaxon.

Bush or vining on the snap peas and (snap?) beans, or are you really, really not fussy?

Yeah! Thanks Gary! My little girl doesn't like many veggies, but I can always get her to eat the colored ones!

dizzywitch · December 16, 2014

Oh Gary, your offers of bonus seeds make you quite the enabler and for that I'm very appreciative! You've gotten me addicted to growing tomatoes so now I think I'm ready to branch out to beans. I would love to try a few and I'm not that picky other than I prefer pole/vining beans. You did great picking out my first tomatoes so I'm putting my trust in you with beans now.
