Gardneralive, Thanks. Sungold is the very sweet yellow tomato. To me sungold and black cherry are the best cherry tomatoes. But Sungold is a hybrid so the seeds I harvest from my plant may not come true. I did grow out one from last year's seeds it still comes out as a yellow sweet cherry but a little bit smaller. I am very interested in your seeds but I can't find your member's email address. Could you send me an email? Thanks. Newgardener_tx

Looking for tomato seed coustralee & creole heirloom seed have contender bush bean for trade.

Bonnie, you sound just like me :) I also love growing unique vegetables for the kids (including me) to enjoy. I was interested primarily in winter sowing veggies, and then ended up getting interested in flowers as well. I grew purple pod bush beans and purple carrots last year! You'll have to let me know how the purple pole beans do, and whether they stay purple or turn green when cooked like mine did. The bush beans didn't yield as well as I would have liked. I am also anxious to see my yellow, purple, and white tomatoes begin to to turn colors. I've had only one red and a couple tiger toms ripen so far. I had a couple yellow pear toms starting to ripen, but my dogs got to them first. I cooked up the Chinese Red Noodle beans in a stir fry last night with some zucchini. I didn't have many beans, but enough to have a taste. I tasted a bite raw, and they were kind of bitter. Stir fried, they were firm textured and mild, kind of a cross between asparagus and green beans. Cooked, the color seemed to darken to to purple/black. My kids ate them, and seemed to like them. Please post pictures of your vegetables as they begin to mature. I love seeing what other people are doing, and getting some new ideas.
