From an early planting in the south we have had a copious supply of stringless beans, either eaten fresh or frozen they get the vote of our two boys aged 5 and 3. Recommended.

Absolutely delighted with these beans - disappointed that they are out of stock at the moment! These beans freeze well and are truly stringless - even my brother was mega impressed - now THAT IS SAYING SOMETHING!

These beans were grown by my sister and given some as a present I was amazed. They truly live up to their title "stringless" and even those that I would have picked sooner were not "stringy". We did not take the sides of any and ate them all. A truly superb variety.

Outstanding bean, crops heavily and sets under all sorts of conditions.

Sow Indoors: May-June singly in clean pots or modules of compost 2in (5cm) deep. Water well.

Sow Outdoors: May-June direct into the required harvest position, 2in (5cm) deep, 8in (20cm) apart in double rows 8in (20cm) apart. Leave 18in (46cm) between each double row. Keep soil moist at all times.

Plant Out: Indoor raised crops in June 8in (20cm) apart in double rows 8in (20cm) apart. Leave 18in (46cm) between each double row, when fear of frost has passed and soil is warm.

Harvest: July-September

Pick young for best flavour. Runner beans require a 'wig wam' of canes to climb through
