All mine are now in flower, no beans yet but just days away.

Hi Fiona.

I plant mine in a double row, 6" bewteen plants and 12" between the two rows. That way the beans are self supporting and there is no need for extra support.

If you need more than one double row, allow enough space so that you can walk between them to harvest the beans.
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?
