Sunset Runner Bean (Phaseolus coccineus) Although the seeds rare similar to those of the Scarlet Runner bean, the flowers are not. Sunset Runner beans have stunning salmon-peach coloured flowers born on 6 foot vines. This heirloom pole bean is a very good producer of very flavourful beans throughout the season. Beans are easy to harvest and excellent as fresh snap, canned or for freezing. An extremely unique variety that has merit as an ornamental and/or food source.
