Phaseolus coccineus 'White Lady'

Plant details

White Lady' is an excellent variety of runner bean that has a lot to recommend it. The pure white flowers are less prone to being picked by birds, so the resulting crop is much greater. The flowers set well in high temperatures. The long, mid-green pods, with white seeds, hang in numerous clusters, and are both smooth and stringless. This is a delicious vegetable which can be sliced or eaten whole, with a garnish of butter. The Royal Horticultural Society has given it its prestigious Award of Garden Merit.
