In My Seed Box For 2027 - Beans

 

Since 2013 I have grown a number of different types & varieties of Beans, but this is what I have in my seed box for 2027

Self Saved & Seed Circle - Bean Seeds last 5-8 years with good storage 

Some of these beans go back a few years, and in 2027, I'm going to sow them all and see which ones are still viable. The greenhouse climbing frame has been up in the corner of the plot 1 and has been used 3 times over the last four years as I could not get down the allotment in 2026

Growing Selection for 2026

My annual runner is normally Scarlet Emperor as they normally provide a good yield and a single panel in the wall at Mill Green Allotment provides me with ample runners for my needs but also for passing on to my sister, eldest daughter and our neighbour.

Now I have additional beds in on Plot 1 and the greenhouse climbing frame in the corner of plot 1 for 2027 I will try some of the French climbing beans as well as Nun's Belly Button, Vermont Cranberry & Pickwick on the French and Bush Beans, which are old seeds I still have in my collection.
