Painted Lady Runner Bean

Beautiful red and white flowers are a treat for hummingbirds and bees. Grown in gardens since the early 1800s. Edible flowers are followed by edible pods which in turn produce large, plump edible beans. Eat them fresh from the pod or dry for winter use. Give the plants something to climb on and stand back as they climb to 2 m. Perfect for the edible ornamental garden.

Phaseolus coccineus
