bluearsedfly junior no3 was sent home yesterday from nursery accompanied by a magic bean.

I’m no seed expert and we are all keen to know what we are going to end up with. My eldest is hoping for a money tree whilst the boy wants a Shreddies tree.

Any ideas?

Broad bean?

It’s a baked bean.. When it fruits the beans are in a pod swimming in a delicious tomato sauce.

Have you tried flicking it?

According to the videos that needs a woman’s touch

Clearly a triffid seed.

Have you tried flicking licking it?

I’m amazed it was found in the first place.

Broad bean?

I think we have a weiner! Thanks.

Tried licking/flicking/spitting on and rubbing it to no avail. Something about a headache.

I was walking in the Wholesale Flower District that day.
(shoop-da-doo)
And I passed by this place where this old chinese man…
(Chang-da-doo)
He sometimes sells me weird and exotic cuttings.
(snip-da-doo)
‘Cause he knows, you see that, strange plants are my hobby.
(Sha-lala-do)

He didn’t have anything unusual there that day.
(nope-da-doo)
So I was just about to, you know, walk on by.
(good-for-you)
When suddenly, and without warning,
There was this…
(Total eclipse of the Sun)

It got very dark…
And there was this strange humming sound,
Like something from another world…
(Da doo)

And when the light came back this weird plant was just sitting there.
(oops -ee-doo)
Just, you know, stuck in, among the zinias.
(audrey-two)
I coulda sworn it hadn’t been there before.
But the old chinese man sold it to me anyway.
(La-La-La-La-La-La-La-La-La-doo-doo-doo-doo)
For a dollar-ninty-five.

Looks like a castor oil seed, that’s what they mace ricin from. 1mg will kill you.
