Your posting made me laugh out loud. A couple of years ago my hubby thought it would be a great idea to have a few runnerbeans. He planted a number of them and eight grew on. We trailed them up and around 8ft bamboo tripods and they kept on coming. I traded them for bananas in our local veg shop. There were literally hundreds of beans every day to pick!!!
Needless to say things are on a much smaller scale now. But that bean can be put outside and trained on just about anything. If it's a runner bean you'll be rewarded with fabulous red flowers.
Good luck!
