Climbing French Bean Yard Long Seeds

Price £ 3.20

Short description

Climbing French Bean seeds "Yard Long" is a type of Oriental bean, also known as Asparagus Bean. It has a vigorous climbing habit reaching a height of 2.5 metres. As the name would suggest the pods are very long, (up to 45cm) round, thin and stringless; as well as being very tasty! This variety can be grown outside but thrives best in large poly tunnels or glasshouses. Climbing beans such as this variety should be supported in much the same way as runner beans would be. This family of beans is frost tender and cannot be sown until the weather has warmed up.

WHEN TO SOW

April to June.



Where to Sow

Early sowings can be made under glass at a temperature of 16°C, sow 3 seeds per 8cm (3in) pot filled with seed sowing compost. Outside sowings can be made from late May onwards into the growing site 5cm (2in) deep. Sow 2-3 seeds every 20cm(8in) apart with rows spaced 60cm (24in) apart.



What to do next

Seedlings that are sown under glass should be gradually hardened off before planting outside in late May to the above spacing, once all risk of frost has passed. Provide support by canes or netting for plants to climb. Water regularly during dry weather.
