Runner bean seeds — tall, generous and bee-friendly

Runner beans are the classic British climber — tall plants hung with scarlet or white flowers that bees adore, followed by long, full-flavoured pods over many weeks. They sit within our peas and beans range and our climbing beans. New to growing? Our vegetable growing guide covers the basics.

Frost-tender, so sow once it is warm — the calendar shows when.

How to grow runner beans

Build a sturdy wigwam or cane frame before sowing, then sow direct after frost or start in pots. Keep the roots moist once flowering so the pods set well, and pick every few days for tender beans.

More climbing and bush beans

For smooth, stringless pods see climbing French beans; for no-support crops, bush beans. Browse all green beans and vegetable seeds.

Want tall, generous pods over many weeks from one easy sowing? Explore the wider range.

Frequently Asked Questions

When do I sow runner beans?
After the last frost once the soil is warm, or start in pots a few weeks earlier to plant out.

Do they need support?
Yes — they are tall climbers and need a sturdy wigwam, canes or netting set up before sowing.

Why are my pods not setting?
Dry roots and hot, dry air stop flowers setting; keep the roots moist once flowering for a good crop.

Are they good for pollinators?
Very — the scarlet or white flowers are a magnet for bees all summer.
