Why Grow Scarlet Runner Beans?

One of the oldest runner bean varieties in existence, this heirloom beauty delivers both ornamental charm and edible rewards:

Growing Your Scarlet Runner Beans

These vigorous vines thrive when planted 1" deep and 8" apart after the last frost. They'll sprout in 7-12 days and grow rapidly, especially in cooler weather. For best results:

  • Provide a strong, tall support as they will easily cover trellises, fences, or corn stalks
  • Plant in full sun for maximum flowering and pod production
  • Harvest continuously to encourage more blooms and pods
  • Enjoy your first harvest in just 55 days
