beans
Scarelet rummers do well in Melbourne, I grow them in shade and find beans
do not set in hot weather. As soon as there is a cool spell lots of beans
set. White 7 year beans are good too, pick the beans before they grow
large and tough. Marie

Hi, i live in perth, and we put in scarlet runner beans over this summer
but they havent given of the biggest crop of beans, so we're wondering,
if
beans are a
winter vegetable to grow. does anyone know when the prime time for
growing
runner beans is in perth?
thanks in advance
They are a warm season vege. In Perth plant in Spring and Summer to early
Autumn, successive plantings will give you a steady supply as each lot
will
only produce for a limited time. Maybe you chose a poor cultivar or
didn't
feed or water them well enough. If you are quick you can try again now
before the cooler weather.
