Hi
I grew these last year, treated them exactly the same as climbing french beans and got a good crop from them.
Very pretty bi-coloured beans and am having another go this year.

A bean that I don't have! Phaseolus aegypticus

Mine are maroon and white too. I've always assumed that the yin-yang and the pea bean were the same. They're as near as dammit is to swearing, aren't they?Last edited by Flummery; 24-01-2009, 10:49 AM.Whoever plants a garden believes in the future.
