Sowing and growing

Germination is tough in cold or rainy weather, so give these plants a head start indoors. Mix together equal parts MM-Mix and vermiculite, plant your seeds in a pot, and put your pots on the windowsill.

As soon as you see the first seedings, transfer them to a garden box outside.

The plants will grow over 2 meters tall, so they need a trellis. Plant them in a patch at the back of your garden box. 8 plants fit in one square patch.

Once the plants make it through the first couple of weeks, they grow easily.

Step-by-step sowing and growing instructions are in the Planty Gardening app.

How do you use them?

Harvest Romano pole beans when they’re still flat and about 20 cm long: that's when they're tastiest. Cut them from the plant using scissors.

Always cook your Romano pole beans. Don't eat them raw.

The most popular way to eat them is to first cut them into narrow, diagonal strips and boil them briefly. Add to white beans for a classic dish: 'bare bottom in the grass'.

Serve on the side or add them to salads, stir fries, and soups.
