What a fantastic flower....


I saw this plant on the internet while looking for something sturdy that would survive on my windy balcony...
Its called 'Ruby Moon' Hyacinth Bean and its beautiful...
I ordered the seeds and got both my kids making newspaper plant pots. (They are free, fun to make, recycled and biodegradeable)

With some water and sunshine the plants started to grow and I got really exited as this is the first time I have grown anything from seed...
I have now moved the plants outside in big pots and they are doing really well.
I shall keep you informed of their progress and also add some pictures.. This truly is a plant that we should all know of....its fantastic...
