$67.77
Average Packet Content 30 seeds
Just because you don’t have much space, doesn’t mean you can’t grow runner beans! This is a superb variety that is ideal for small gardens, patios or balconies as it reaches only 45cm (18″) tall. Produces good yields of long, straight, stringless pods with a good flavour and are excellent to freeze for later use. Harvest July-September. Height 40-50cm (16-20″); spread 20-30cm (8-12″).
Growing Information
Sow in pots or trays on a windowsill or in a greenhouse using quality compost. Cover seeds with 3.8cm (1?”) compost. Germination 7-14 days. Grow on, planting outside protecting with cloches until frost risk has passed. Alternatively, sow direct into warm, moist soil prepared by digging and raking. Grows best in rich, well-prepared soil. Conserve moisture by mulching with manure, straw or grass clippings. Water well during dry summers.
