Thompson and Morgan Bean French Climbing Cobra Multi Sown Garden Ready Plant 15 Pack

Elevate your garden with Climbing French Bean Cobra, a prolific producer of delectable, stringless green pods, each stretching to approximately 18 cm (7 inches). Adorned with charming mauve flowers, this climbing bean is equally at home in ornamental borders or patio containers. Begin by nurturing plug plants in a warm, well-lit environment until the threat of frost has passed. Acclimatise the plug plants gradually to outdoor conditions over 7 to 10 days before transplanting them into rich, fertile, well-drained soil, bathed in sunshine and sheltered from strong winds. Space rows 60 cm (24 inches) apart when planting, or utilise a wigwam structure where space is limited. Support the climbing beans with garden canes, strings, or netting, installed at planting time. Consistent hoeing between plants and regular watering are essential. A compost mulch around the base of the plants will aid moisture retention during drier spells. Harvest regularly while the pods are young for the finest flavour. Culinary note: These beans are ideal for freezing. Caution: Always cook climbing beans thoroughly before consumption to prevent discomfort. Please note: Images are for illustrative purposes only and may vary according to growing conditions. Seasonal changes may affect the appearance of plants (e.g., deciduous plants shed leaves in colder months).
