Climbing French Bean 'Neckarkönigin'

Climbing Bean round-podded Neckarkoningin is an absolute winner on both taste and yield. The 20 cm long legumes are very fleshy and stay succulent for an extraordinary long time. To stimulate the absorption of moist and hence a better germination, you should gently stick a needle in the seeds just before sowing. Sow twice if you want to increase the harvesting period. Cultivation should take place on a sheltered location and make a stable construction on which the plants can climb.

An important advantage of climbing beans is that there are no problems with mould, because the crop is able to dry well. Other advantages are the long picking periods and high yields. Never sow beans with cold or wet weather. Because of mice and birds, sowing sufficient deep is recommended (three – four centimetres).
