Re: Runner beans

That's interesting, Zem. Thom never ceases to amaze me. Wonder if he used the beans fresh, dried, or both.

Dwarf bush runner beans [is that an oxymoron?] are blooming. Pretty red and white flowers. I've two of them growing in a pot. If it blooms a lot it should be an interesting patio plant.
