Sweet peas with Runner beans
 

Last year I grew Morning Glory 'Star of Yelta' and 'Scarlet Climber' with my
tub grown Runner beans. This year, for a change, I would like to try sweet
peas, any recommendations please? Presumably they would need to be well
perfumed to attract the bees.
Thanks,
Mike Crossland

Painted Lady is just as fragrant but I think a bit prettier in two-tone
pink, than the deep purple of mantuca(na?)

I grow Matucana with mine (not tub-grown), and think it looks great.
Painted lady is also a variety of runner bean by the way. It has red and
white flowers - v pretty.
