This is a British-bred, top-quality runner bean producing pods of over 40cm in length. Abundant crops of pods hang in clusters and are fleshy, but slender, smooth and straight.

Place in a propagator or seal container inside a polythene bag and keep at 18-20C until after germination which takes 7-10 days. Gradually acclimatise to outdoor conditions for 7-10 days before planting out after risk of frost, against canes or netting. Hoe regularly and keep well-watered. Mulch during dry periods and give a liquid fertiliser every 2 weeks.
