Bean Seeds - Runner

Celebration Large clusters of salmon-pink flowers are followed by 25cm (10”) long pods. This early, high-yielding runner bean grows 2.4m (8’) with heavy production in August and September. Celebration is the recipient of the RHS Award of Garden Merit. It was a hit from our field trials, attracting hummingbirds and bumblebees all summer. Matures in 60-70 days. (Open-pollinated seeds)

Snowstorm is an improved runner bean with clusters of showy white flowers that are followed by long, sweet, tender pods. The pods are straight and smooth, and stringless if harvested at 20-25cm (8-10") long, but will mature to a full 30cm (12") in length. The mature beans can be dried for use in soups and stews all winter long. Grow Snowstorm runner beans up a tall, strong trellis, and it will reach 3m (10') or higher by mid-summer. Snowstorm is a winner of the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit. Matures in 65-75 days. (Open-pollinated seeds)

Firestorm By carefully crossing traditional runner beans with French filet beans, the breeders of Firestorm have produced highly productive runner beans with improved texture and flavour. Enjoy the stringless immature pods whole or allow the tender seeds inside to mature for use in soups and stews. Or wait for the full size pods at 25cm (10") long for drying to enjoy over the winter months. Firestorm is a vigorous, productive variety, with clusters of fiery red flowers that are followed by abundant pods. Matures in 65-75 days. (Open-pollinated seeds)
