How do french beans climb?

[Trix]

I have bought some climbing french bean seeds and am not sure which support they need? Will they just twine around poles like runner beans or do they need something more to cling to, like peas?

I've tried searching several times but never seem to find a clear answer - I know I can rely on the lovely people here

Thanks in advance!

They twine round like runner beans and are fine with bamboo sticks.

Thank you - that's the answer I was hoping for!

I make a tipi / teepee for mine made out of bamboo sticks and they climb up.

Yes, they are a vine, and the foliage looks identical to runner beans (so you might want to label each)
