The stupid bean beetles have just decimated my beans, AGAIN!!! Good thing I put row cover on the new plants. But I have barely gotten any beans from the second bunch and I'm so disgusted I may just pull them out tomorrow.

Because we're not going to market this week my zinnias are just gorgeous! They must know they're not getting cut down. Maybe I'll mark a few for saving seeds later and deadhead the rest after they're past their peak.

Oh no, sorry about your bad luck growing beans.

I just love zinnias and grow them most years. Not this year. For some reason I just didn't get to planting any or starting seed. Your zinnias are probably celebrating their good cut in not becoming cut flowers.
