Has anyone grown 'Climbing French Bean Blue Lake' ?

I bought a pack of seeds yesterday.


Have grown them 3 times over the last 10 years. Only had one good crop.

I'm 500' up and East facing. Blue Lake needs a sheltered spot.


Thank you. I might try just a few and see how they go. How long do seeds
last?


Several years, at least, if kept dry. That's true of all bean
seeds.
