I had some runner beans which I brough from England. *Only 2 have
germinated, I dug down and the rest have all rotted away! *I bought
some French runner beans here yesterday, put them on wet kitchen roll
and I will leave them like that until they germinate and then plant,
has anyone else had a failure this year?

Yes the rabbits grazed mine off!


I have that problem in the garden, the vegetable garden is supposed to
be rabbit proofed. Much as I dislike killing them; I have to shoot
them as they have burrowed under a shrub. I swear I kill 1 and 3 come
back to haunt me.
