Pole bean seeds — runner and climbing beans for vertical harvests

Pole beans grow tall up canes and wigwams for a generous, long-lasting crop — the group that includes classic runner beans and climbing French beans. They belong to the Phaseolus vulgaris family within our peas and beans range and overlap closely with our climbing beans. Just starting out? Our vegetable growing guide explains the basics.

Tall plants, sturdy supports. Set up a strong frame before sowing — pole beans get heavy. The calendar shows timing.

Runner and climbing French beans

Runner beans give long, rough-textured pods and scarlet or white flowers that pollinators adore; climbing French beans are smoother and stringless. For a quick crop with no support, our bush beans and dwarf beans are the alternative, and the full green bean range gathers them all.

Growing tall and productive

Sow after frost into rich, moisture-retentive soil — our soil guide helps — and keep the roots damp once flowers appear so the pods set well. Pick regularly with help from our harvesting guide to keep them coming into autumn.

Feeding bees and the kitchen. A wigwam of runner beans is as good for pollinators as it is for dinner.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a pole bean?
A tall bean grown up supports — the group covers runner beans and climbing French beans.

Pole or bush beans?

What support do they need?
A strong cane wigwam or frame around two metres tall to carry the weight of the crop.

When do I sow pole beans?

Are runner beans good for pollinators?
Yes — their flowers are excellent for bees through the summer.
