Our peas and beans are really starting to stretch and climb after some recent rains and warm days, which is always very exciting. However, our purple flowering raspberries have started showing off and they took my breath away.

What's growing on with you all?

Nice Pic!! We're already eating some yellow thornless raspberries. Yay, Summer!!

Yum! I had my very first yellow raspberries last year and I was so in love with their flavor and color.

Thornless was also a 'selling point'. Mine were a gift from another gardener. And being raspberries they try to spread beyond their allotted space. So I dig them and put them up on freecycle. It's super popular, and they can spread their DNA in someone else's garden. :-D

Always a good trait in my book as well! The one in the post picture has a fuzzy stem, no thorns.
