Bring colour, flavour and generous harvests to your garden with RHS Runner Bean St George Seeds by Mr Fothergills. This outstanding British bred modern variety is known for its striking red and white bicoloured flowers which make it as ornamental as it is productive. St George is a favourite among growers who want a reliable cropper that combines beauty, vigour and excellent eating quality.
This early and prolific runner bean sets pods quickly and continues to produce throughout the season. Beans form in generous clusters and each plant delivers a steady supply of long slender pods with a crisp succulent texture. The variety is specially selected for top performance in UK gardens and holds the respected RHS Award of Garden Merit which confirms its reliability and flavour.
The pods have an excellent snap when bent which is a sign of true freshness. They are best picked young and tender to enjoy their finest taste and texture. Use them in classic runner bean dishes, steam them lightly or slice into stir fries. This variety is ideal for family gardens, allotments and growers who want consistently high yields.
Runner beans thrive in rich well prepared soil in a sunny sheltered spot. St George climbs vigorously so provide tall supports such as canes, poles or frames. Sow indoors from April or outdoors from May once the soil has warmed. Regular picking encourages continued flowering and a longer harvest window that often stretches from July to October.
With its decorative blooms and impressive productivity, St George is a brilliant choice for gardeners who enjoy vegetables that look beautiful throughout the season. Pair with AllotMate Essentials plant supports, twine and plant foods to create a strong and long lasting runner bean structure.
