In our seed set "Climbing Bean Power" we have put together 6 climbing, historical and interesting pole beans. In summer, the pods can be used in many ways for cooking, e.g. cooked for bean vegetables or salads. Many of the varieties form attractive, colourful dry seeds, which are well suited for preparing bean dishes in winter. As pole beans need a climbing aid, you can let them grow up e.g. the garden fence, the balcony railing, poles or other plants like corn or sunflowers. Seeds can be obtained from the seed-proof varieties (and dried in a practical net bag). Our set contains the following varieties:
