Fothergill's Climbing Bean Pantheon Seeds

Details:

• Botanical Name: Phaseolus vulgaris, a high-performance selection within the Climbing Bean genus.
• Juicy Flat-Pod Profile: Bears large, broad, and flat green pods that remain remarkably juicy, tender, and completely stringless throughout their development.
• High-Yielding Clusters: Unlike solitary varieties, these beans hang in heavy, prolific clusters along the vine, maximizing your vertical growing space.
• Early Harvesting: Specially valued for its rapid development, allowing you to pick big, succulent crops before your maincrop runner beans are ready to harvest.
• Robust Disease Resistance: Bred with advanced natural resilience against common bean diseases, ensuring healthy, clean green foliage and reliable crop performance.
• Elegant White Blossoms: Flowers with a profusion of clean white blossoms that contrast beautifully with the dark green leaves, attracting vital pollinators to the plot.

Care Instructions:

• Sowing Position: Sow seeds directly outdoors 5cm deep once the risk of spring frost has fully passed, or start early indoors in deep pots. Position in a bright, sheltered spot in full sun.
• Soil Preference: Plant out into deeply dug, moisture-retentive soil that has been well-fertilized with plenty of organic matter or garden compost.
• Support & Watering: Erect sturdy bamboo poles, netting, or a garden teepee up to 1.8m (6ft) tall for the vines to climb. Water the roots copiously when the white flowers appear and pick the flat pods regularly to sustain a non-stop harvest.
