My climbing french beans have been amazing this year, drowing in them. The freezers are stuffed and friends and family have been well supplied.
I have grown Cobra, Carminat, Kentucky Wonder Wax, Cosse Violette, Cherokee Trail of Tears, Veitch's Climbing, Snowcap, Cara la Virgen de la Baneza, Borlotti and Lazy Housewife.
I have had a small to moderate crop of my Black Knight runner beans, but now the weather has cooled down a bit I am hoping for a better crop, plenty of flowers.
I have paid a lot of attention to watering and mulching which has helped.
