Beans must be planted so that they pop up after the frost has gone. Keep the seeds in a dry place until next March/April. Use a plastic container and compost and layer the beans like a sandwitch filling with the compost. keep nice and damp,not wet, in a warm place untill the roots or leave start to show. plant in pots, keep warm and sunny until frost has gone and plant out 1 foot apart . Support with sticks. LOADS OF BEANS.
Firestorm and stardust - www.marshalls-seeds.co.uk - if you plant now, water every day and once a week with liquid nettle feed , the seeds will germinate .Meanwhile, get the bamboo wigwams up. As soon as the flowers appear, feed once a week with liquid compfrey feed. I planted mine 3 weeks ago, they are 6' high now and curling round the tops of the canes with loads of red (firestorm) and white(stardust) flowers. Btw, theyare both self pollinating so no need for nearby wild flowers.
