Scarlet runner beans.

Jeannine Anne · May 2, 2016

I was going to tell you that there are some varieties now that don't need the pollination by the bees.

They are a few French Bean x Runner beans varieties now , They have all of the runner bean attributes but don't need the bees and have been designed for just that problem

I know or 2 but there may be more since I learned about this a couple or so years ago.

Moonlight which has a white flower and Firestorm which is red

Anyway it seems your are working now, but the info is good for someone else in high heat areas
