RUNNER BEANS
These showy and ornamental pole-type beans carry masses of very bright flowers in slender clusters over a very long summer and fall season. Hummingbirds love them. The flowers are followed by dark green, flattened pods that are quite tasty when young. Older pods can be shelled and the seeds prepared like green limas. Tolerates part shade and cool conditions better than other beans--in fact bloom is heaviest in areas without hot, dry summers. But even in hot areas they will bloom quite nicely in the late summer and fall. Runner Beans are terrific for providing quick shade on porches or for covering arbors, fences or out buildings. Packet is 20 seeds.
