Outdoorsy types

The peas are back outside (they came in overnight) and they've now been joined by the beans.  
The beans are enormous.  Well, one of them is.  Actually, 4 of them are screaming upwards.  The fifth will soon join them and I continue to hold out hope for the wayward sixth, breech born.  You could have knocked me over with a feather when it finally emerged, like a sea serpent.  
It must have spent the last week ploughing head first through the soil, under its seed, trying somehow to find the light of day.  I am very sorry for this guy that I put his seed in the wrong way up.
