You could make a teepee/tripod arrangement out of three bamboo poles per hill of beans and then use string where necessary for horizontal supports or encouragement. You can find nylon peanet (our last batch came from Harris Seeds in Rochester, New York), which is good for any twining plant. If your beans are growing near rabbit or chickenwire you can use twistems to fasten them to the fencing material.....just some ideas from somebody growing hyacinth beans and scarlet runners for the first time in a while |
