Having grown climbing beans in the polytunnel for years, I decided to try growing the bush varieties of the same species. But instead of taking the simple option of growing a small trial patch, I decided to grow a much bigger trial of 15 different varieties, to see the range of types and possibilities, and hopefully to figure out which varieties I would want to grow in the future. And to make things even more complicated I decided to save seeds from all the varieties as well!
