The 'Akahana Mame' runner bean comes to us from Japan... This climbing bean boasts the spectacular bright-red flowers typical of the species, which are very attractive to hummingbirds. These are followed by plump green pods 20 cm long. When ripe, the large seeds are black with purplish-red mottling. The flowers, green pods or dried seeds can be eaten. Very prolific variety. Approximately 85 days to maturity.

Beans called from Spain are native to Mexico, where they grow on mountain plateaus at high altitudes. They tolerate and appreciate the coolness and frequent rainfall of this type of environment. So we need to make sure they don't run out of water in our gardens... and understand that fruiting may abort on very hot days.
