.....Prizewinner Pole Beans. I raised these a few years ago in NH but lost all my seed, they wouldn't germinate. Found these at Harvest Moon Farms. ☺

Gary, these seeds are really hard to find, Johnny's used to carry them but no more. They're a very large bean and make a great shell bean, I've read somewhere that they're a strain from Scarlett Runner.

I did a Google search and the only sources that I came up with were from Great Britian. I guess they're much more popular in Europe than here. I just happened to stumble across these while searchin for tomatoes, like I need more 'maters! hehehe

Are the blooms red like the scarlett runners?

Juli, to tell you the truth, I don't remember but I think so, you can see them in the pic on the seed cover.
