  • Runner Bean Scarlet Emperor is a true garden classic that’s been grown and loved for generations. It’s valued for its dependable cropping, long tender pods and that familiar, rich runner bean flavour that works so well simply steamed or lightly cooked. The bright flowers are a lovely bonus, adding colour to the garden before the beans start to form.

  • This variety grows tall and strong, making it perfect for climbing up canes, arches or wigwams. It’s an easy plant to look after and rewards a bit of care with plenty of beans over a long summer harvest, especially if you keep picking them while they’re young.
