The plan is to have these vibrant perennial scarlet runner beans planted the length of our driveway fence between the espaliered apple trees, making maximum use of a narrow space by growing food vertically and...perennially!
So far 5 plants have taken and one is producing really well in its second year, covered in these cheerful sprigs of bean blossoms.
I can just imagine what it will look like when there are 7 or 8 plants all bearing just as many flowers each Summer...and how wonderful it will be to have a full freezer of beans for the Winter and extras to share with neighbours.
