Runner Bean ‘Bench Master’

• Exceptionally long pods, up to 40cm
• Ideal variety for showing
• Excellent flavour and long harvest period
• Attractive red-flowered variety

Benchmaster has been bred for its very long pods which can reach up to 40cm, making it an obvious candidate for the showbench. Like many showing varieties, it’s also just as good to eat with a delicious flavour. As well as having a long cropping period, it can also be sliced, blanched, cooled and then frozen for autumn and winter supplies.

Plant 15-20cm apart once the danger of frost has passed, and grow up supporting canes in rows or arranged into a ‘wigwam’.
