Lidl Dwarf French Bean Kinghorn Wax
« on: March 31, 2011, 22:03 »
I bought a packet of these in the week with the intention of sowing into pots at the weekend.I've never grown these before &i'm not entirely sure how tall these will grow to.
  Anyone got any ideas?
  Cheers

Hi Teflon
French Bean Kinghorn Wax grow about 40cm high and produce yellow french beans. Its a bit too early to be sowing them yet as they cant be planted out until after the risk of frost unless your going to grow them under some form of cloche. Best to leave sowing for another 3 or 4 weeks ready for planting out at the end of May / beginning of June.

The Dwarf beans that I've grown in the past are no more than 2' high at the very most. Not sure about the variety you mention though.

Have you grown dwarf beans before?

I've changed over to climbing french beans - they seem to give a larger crop with less scrabbling around to pick them.  :)
Never keep your wish-bone where your back-bone ought to be.

Good advice...... I missed the mention of sowing at the week-end!  :blink:  :ohmy:
