French Bean Plants

French Bean plants are easy to grow and give a superb yield for the small amount of effort needed to produce them. To enjoy French Beans at their best, pick them when young and tender and cook the pods whole.

If pods are left to mature on the plant they can be dried and shelled as haricot beans for winter use. Grow French Beans using the same type of support as runner beans, such as a cane wigwam!
