Thompson & Morgan Runner Bean Scarlet Emperor 40 Seed
£2.99
Runner Bean - Scarlet Emperor
This variety produces heavy crops of long, smooth, textured, dark-green pods, which are excellent for freezing and exhibition.
Prefers to be grown in fertile, moist, yet well drained soil which has had plenty of well-rotted compost dug into it the previous autumn. For an early start, sow seeds from mid-spring in artificial heat (propagator, greenhouse, warm room) in peat pots and plant out after last expected frost. Outdoors do not sow until at least 10 days after last frost, 5cm deep. Sow 2 seeds every 30cm in rows 38cm apart. Remove weaker seedlings after germination. Make sure your soil is warm and avoid it becoming baked hard. Provide poles, trellis or mesh for them to climb. Water regularly and liquid feed every 14 days as the beans form. A thick mulch will help conserve moisture. Pick the beans regularly a little on the young side to ensure top quality and prolonged cropping.
