Where's the .............................

What I want to know is: Where is the Inga bean? Just kidding, but they get big!
Also, I'm real surprised to see the rockwork. When I think of California ag, I visualize flat land and lots of dirt; however, it looks well maintained.
fwiw--my farm is on a slope with rocks also, so take my comments as a tease rather than a putdown.

Inga photo

You can see some of the Inga leaves in the tamarillo photo, on the extreme left upper and lower corners.

Here is the tree photographed in June, notice new leaf growth.

Not bad for Santa Cruz!
