Scarlet Runner Beans, opinions needed
Comments (7)Well, I can't speak for Texas conditions, but they are great plants here in Michigan. It's pretty normal for them not to set a lot, or even hardly any, at first, then they get going later in the season and are productive. Overall yields are lower than P. vulgaris beans, but the flavor is great and I feel it's worth it. Unless you've planted them really thick, you could probably just plant some regular pole beans right in with them and just let them slug it out -- you would most likely end up with some of both kinds yielding in the end....See MoreWanted: Scarlet Runner Bean

I have plenty of bubble mailers, so you'd only need to send the postage. Email me if you're interested....See MoreScarlet Runner Flowering Bean
Comments (4)Scarlet runner beans are a vegetable not a flower. They are an attractive plant and often used as a flower. They look great on a trellis or arbor and the bonus is delicious beans. They are longer than bush beans and should be havested when they are firm and full. Wait too long and they won't be good....See Moregamebird
