Bean 'Giant Of Stuttgart' (Organic)

A climbing giant bean from the continent that produces a bumper harvest that just keeps on coming. Slightly flattened pods are deliciously fleshy and tender, even at full length. Eat fresh. Ready to harvest in 10 weeks from sowing. Yields 2kg per plant.
How to grow

Fast growing tender annuals, beans perform best in warm, sunny positions. Shallow rooted vegetables, beans require regular watering. Their ideal soil will be enriched with organic matter, be neutral to alkaline and also have some potassium applied prior to sowing. Climbing and pole beans require support, while bush beans are self-supporting. Sow seed direct when soil temperature is between 16-29 degrees C and there is no likelihood of frost. Seed should germinate within 6-15 days and seedlings should be protected from snails and slugs. Water regularly and when plants start cropping, pick daily to maximise your harvest. At the end of the season, compost plants to add nitrogen back into your soil.
