Beans are grown for seed pods which are generally picked before they mature, while the seeds are still soft.

Growing Beans

Beans are grown across the UK. Beans generally require full sun and a well drained soil rich in humus or organic matter. Plant bean seeds when frost conditions have passed. Beans should be planted approx 10cm deep and 60cm apart. It is a good idea to put supporting or climbing poles in place before planting so as not to disturb roots. Beans like to be kept moist, but be careful not to overwater. Once you have picked beans, plants can be dug into the soil or composted.
'Scarlet Runner' is an early variety.
'Purple Queen' is a high yeilding french bean.
Dwarf 'Borlotti' can be harvested early as green bean or left to dry.
Butter 'Cherokee Wax' is a yellow dwarf variety.
'Coles Early Dwarf' is an early Broad Bean
'Blue Lake Climbing' is a highly productive climbing variety.
Dwarf Bean "Snapbean" is a stringless variety.
"Snake Beans" are used in stir fry and along with the Madagascar Bean and Winged Beans are more suitable for warmer climates, or summer crops.
