Luckily, this variety is easier to grow than pronounce. It is one of the most attractive beans with bright green flat pods splashed with red which disappear on cooking. It can be used as a flageolet type. Climbing beans such as this variety should be supported in the same way as you would support runner beans.

This family of beans is frost tender and cannot be sown until the weather has warmed up.
