        Are they dwarf or climbing?

        Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

        Which one are you and is it how you want to be?

          Need to know whether they are dwarf or climbing varieties. Even so, 10" is very small for flowers and beans. Where are they growing - in pots or in open ground? If they are climbing varieties they will need support in the form of canes or string and they can grow 6 feet tall (maybe more). Dwarf beans are supposed to support themselves, but I usually give them a few sticks to hold them up.

            I am growing french beans (which I presume are the climbing variety because it didn't say anything else) and also dwarf french beans.
            someone told me they should start producing beans when they are about 3' tall?
            also does tying them to cane help stop them getting snapped by the wind? two of mine were snapped by the wind a few nights ago they are under glass at the moment for shelter because it's really windy, rainy and cold tonight but when they get a bit taller they won't fit under the glass anymore lol.
