Runner beans

[billnorfolk]

Thanks guys
Maggie, I didn't mean I expected them to have grown down the pole overnight, rather would they still be pointing down or have got themselves pointing back up. They are still pointing down this morning
Bill, these are the 6 plants we put in the PT just to see what happens, quite a few flowers now
The outdoor ones are not as big, although they are starting to produce flowers.

Yes i remember ,sounds like the outside ones have recovered nicely.

I now feel totally inadequate. My runners are till only about 5" high, and haven't even started climbing yet

Mine aren't that much better. But after the slow start, looks like summer is here at last. Hopefully, things will pick up.

Its a fact they do grow anti clockwise around a pole or support but in Austrailia do they grow the other way round clockwise .

Indeed they do...same as the water goes down the plughole the opposite way

We used to live in Tawa (just outside Wellington)...worked in the Hutt Valley...yes occasional rumble (although we moved to Christchurch 7 years ago ..with supposedly no major quakes and....!!!) it is a lovely city - I loved driving around the harbour every day to work ..never the same

It is Ashburton where they live ,i think a smoke stack and a few roof tiles up to now but nothing major.I would also love the harbour ride ,i have a strong connection with the sea and ships and where ever they are still get a buzz
