Purple Green Beans

With the steady rains, I have been harvesting a lot of Green Beans. The purple beans turn green when cooked.

It looks like a Garden Spider is protecting my Purple Beech. There has been a large population of these spiders this summer.

I took stem cuttings of a Sorbaria this spring. The plants actually are flowering already.

The Common Reed is starting to head out. The color is reddish in the early stages, but will later change in color.

I found a Pigweed that had some variegation on it. Some weeds look more attractive than others.

The Golden Hops has found the Giant Miscanthus to climb on. This perennial vine suckers and comes up all over.
