Dwarf Beans "The Prince"
« on: August 02, 2009, 18:39 »
My first time of growing dwarf beans and I am confused, as they look just like runner beans.  I had expected them to be rounded with a smooth skin, whereas these are flat with a rough skin.  Should I still cook them whole, or treat them as for runner beans and take the "stringy" bit off each side and slice??

Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

Mine certainly do not look like this, but are a dwarf variety.  Mine were from Thompson and Morgan also.  Not sure what to do with them now - I think they will be touch just cooked in their pods.

Are you a seed "chitting" or "no-chit" sort of person?
