Why Grow Scarlet Runner Beans?

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

  • Pollinator magnet - Bees and hummingbirds can't resist the vibrant blooms
  • Dual-purpose harvest - Enjoy tender young pods and edible flowers all season

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
