Mine have been really slow to grow this year, but are definitely putting on a spurt of growth with the change in weather.

I'll put this here so you can enjoy mine vicariously while waiting for your own

Ah!!! So pretty! And nicely supported too (mine are starting to grow into each other because I haven't bothered to run string between my stakes). I did not know there were varieties with pink flowers though!!

Most of them are white, I am growing these specifically because I like the pink flowers. The variety is Yakumo, and it grows good pods too.

Thank you, I'll have to track this variety down! I always like a little burst of colour on the balcony, it cheers everyone up 😺

I recommend The Seed Collection - their seeds are much cheaper and I've bought quite a bit from them with no problems.
