  • Black-seeded runner beans

    Anyone grow any black-seeded varieties of runner bean and might be willing to send me a few seeds (either swapped for something or with a stamped addressed envelope)?
    I grew one variety, Black Doulting, for the first time this year, but it's not too prolific compared to my other runner bean varieties, so I was wondering if anyone else might have a different variety with black seeds which I could give a go.

    theres a few around ameno , a lot of them are reselections of varieties like Enorma ( a well know show variety) so if you know anyone who shows veg they may have some.

      I've gone and bought Black Rhonda from Realseeds, now, which is indeed a black version of Enorma. I grew Enorma before for dry beans and it did well for me.
      Kind of costly, though, seeing as they have an £8 minimum order and I didn't particularly want anything else, so I had to trawl through everything for things to bulk it out with.
