Heavy, well flavoured crops are the hallmark of this splendid bean. It produces long fleshy pods that are virtually stringless. Dwarf Beans are ideal for the smaller garden, and can even be grown in pots where space is severely limited.
Halfhardy annual.
When to plant: Spring and Summer
How to grow: Sow 25mm (1in) deep in dark, damp soil. Avoid watering for a day or two afterwards. Sow 7-10cm (3-4in) apart, allowing 50cm (20in) between rows. Ensure the danger of frosts has passed and protect plants from the wind. Plant in 3-5 metre (10-16ft) rows and remove weeds regularly. Water well during dry periods and spray flowers with a fine rose on your watering can. This will help the pods to set. Harvest: 8-10 weeks
