Despite the earlier bad news, the first of our bush beans are pushing themselves forcefully out of the ground. They are a week late, so perhaps seed storage in the fridge put them into a dormant state, rather than killing them outright.

That’s good news! I’ve wondered about that fridge storing of seeds, but not done it myself – just kept in a cool dark place.
I was going to commiserate with you on yr previous post, as my rhubarb seeds have done nothing – my 3rd attempt, so think I must be doing something wrong! Have enough seeds left for one last attempt, so I’ll borrow a bit of your luck please 😉
