Dwarf French beans

Hi, I know this may seem ignorant of me, but I'm only 17 and don't have much experience! Do dwarf French beans need any support like the climbers do or do they just grow kinda bushy and small? Thanks! Hi Nick, Don't worry about age- Gardening is one by Nick Winn

Best runner bean

I have usually grown two varieties of runner beans each year tryng to find the best flavoured, stringless runner bean. I have come to the conclusion that white flowered varieties are better at setting big crops. Polestar was very good last year by Verdun
