It is strange to think about, but when I was a kid my grandmother had some Scarlet Runner Beans and she used them only for the flowers - she said the beans were deadly poison - I had never heard any different until years later when friends were cooking and eating them - I was amazed that they didn't die - but was glad also.JoAnn ( Scene Through My Eyes)https://www.blogger.com/profile/12621061028973446378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35356005.post-39378384040215038322014-11-07T12:04:54.007-08:002014-11-07T12:04:54.007-08:00I love growing scarlett runner beans.

The last lot of seeds I got when we were visiting our daughter in Sooke a couple of November's ago and their neighbour had them going through the fence, so I couldn't resist taking a few pods for growing the next season. They grew well. These are beans that we grow in England all the time and when picked young they are delicious.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35356005.post-36795441925519890302014-11-07T10:29:37.721-08:002014-11-07T10:29:37.721-08:00They are such a pretty plant and prolific, too.
