Then of course, there are it’s tasty edible flowers AND runner beans too. I pick whole flower trusses for edible table centre arrangements. They are easy to grow and exceptionally long-flowering and long-producing.

Please note, illustrated packets are being introduced gradually over the coming months, availability may vary.

Care Tips

Will grow best in a sunny position with fertile, well-dug soil with plenty of organic matter. Water well during dry weather and apply a mulch to help keep soil moist, especially during dry weather if growing in a container. Protect from slugs.
