The beanstalk is actually a sunflower which I didn't plant. It just shot up from the seed head that spent the winter as bird food next to our house. My garden is so magical right now in this cool (for a St. Louis summer!) weather that I can hardly bear it. The insects really love this oasis of unsprayed weeds, and I love everything about them: their sounds and looks and values, one of which is to feed the bats that swoop around in the lightning bug lit dusk.
