ALL ABOUT THESE BEANS
Scarlet Emperor Runner Beans are vibrant, climbing plants known for their striking red flowers and large, edible pods. These beans are not only ornamental but also functional, providing both beauty and harvestable beans. They can grow up to 12 feet tall, requiring sturdy support structures. The beans themselves are rich in nutrients, offering a good source of protein, fiber, and vitamins. They thrive best in well-drained soil and full sunlight.


The Scarlet Emperor Runner Bean, scientifically known as Phaseolus coccineus, originates from Central and South America. It was cultivated by indigenous peoples long before European exploration. The bean was introduced to Europe in the 16th century by explorers and quickly gained popularity for its dual use in gardens and kitchens. Over time, it spread across the globe, becoming a staple in many cuisines and gardens due to its hardiness and aesthetic appeal. The name "Scarlet Emperor" reflects its royal red hue, suggesting both its striking appearance and perhaps its esteemed status in horticulture.
