Default beans

I brought 1 potted bean plant indoors and now it has little pink flowers on it (the other outdoor ones are starting to get theirs now) anyway, does anyone know if it will start producing beans after the flowers?
I think they are dwarf french beans.

Thanks in advance!

I'm not sure about pollination indoors. (It always seems a bit rude to go tickling a plant's Private Parts with a little brush, doesn't it?) Certainly the outdoor ones will set beans with no problems. Beware - they are a bit like courgettes in that you think you've picked them all and next time you look there's a load more.
