Runner Beans or Drying Beans 'Coco Sophie'

This very old, climbing bean variety has been in catalogues since around 1930 and is still very popular due to its excellent taste and good harvest! Harvested young, you can enjoy a delicious green bean, usually stringless (new for that time!) and soon with a small bean inside the pod. When ripe, you harvest a delicious (almost) round and white bean that melts softly and balmily on the tongue…
