  • Kenyan fine green beans?

    Question - ya know when you buy 'fine beans' from the supermarket, they're little thin green beans????? Well so are they a particular type of green bean or just any ol' bean picked early? We've grown climbing french beans and they've never seemed so 'fine' as the supermarket ones?

      Last time I saw these they were in a warehouse in Ostend Airport waiting for me to bring them home to Blighty in a truck having just been flown in from Africa.

      There comes a point in your life when you realize who matters, who never did, who won't anymore and who always will. Don't worry about people from your past, there's a reason why they didn't make it in your future.

            Thanks LJ - are they available as a climber? I always think that dwarf beans are a waste of space.

              They are the ones I know and grow. You get huge bunches of beans. Well worth growing.

                    You're losing it LJ!

                    Thanks, but I think I might try Cobra, I prefer climbing beans.
