SCARLET RUNNER BEANS
Phaseolus coccineus
Here’s a terrific dual purpose plant. Not only does it provide oodles
of edible green beans that burst with flavour, this skyward climber
will be covered in brilliant red flowers that the hummingbirds can’t
get enough of! Planted at the base of a large pole, ours have reached
over 3 m. Offered in an 1827 Toronto Nursery catalogue. Well-drained
soil, Full sun. D.S. Annual.
