Description
An old reliable favourite with medium length pods, good flavour and long harvesting period not as vigorous as the other varieties. Stunning red and white flowers will make a great addition to your garden.
Harvest
Pick before the beans start to swell from June onwards.
Growing Instructions
Plant 25cm apart in well drained soil next to a trellis/net or cane and guide them in the direction you would like them to grow. Once they reach the top let them run wild back down. Position in a sunny but sheltered site. Keep well watered until established and in dry weather. Must protect them from the frost and feed every other week once the first beans have formed - not before. Plant Gardeners Kitchen 'Sweet Peas' alongside them to help pollination.
Tip
Harvest regularly for a continuous crop.
Companion Plants
Plant Nasturtiums near beans to ward off bean beetles.
