This was a great video, with a lot of information! I knew you guys had the Nigerians, but did not know you had Saanens, too! I have Saanens also! I LOVE them!
On the Three Sisters, I have never planted that way, so I am not sure, but I think the Trail of Tears would be better than the Rattlesnakes I told you about. The Trail of tears do do not have as much foliage, nor get as tall, as the Rattlesnake Beans. Also, since the Trail of Tears seem to be more for dry beans, if you can't get into the corn to harvest them, it is no big deal. I also feel like between the corn, and the thick foliage, the Rattlesnake beans would completely shade out your squash. The Rattlesnake beans will climb over 6 feet tall.
I LOVE flowers and herbs in the garden. Right now, I mostly have marigolds and zinnia that grow wherever. 4 O'clocks grow on two sides of the garden, and I also have morning glories that grow up the back of a little shed. Right in the middle of the garden, I have 3 raised bed where I grow bee balm, yarrow, echinacea, chamomile, chicory, and calendula.
I also love Strictly Medicinal for my herbs. I hope to be adding many more herbs this year!
