A new British re-selection that gives an improved form of the ever popular Achievement. Heavy yields of long, smooth, slender straight pods that have exquisite flavour are produced in abundance over a long season. Red flowered variety, particularly attractive in the garden. Harvest July to October.
Sowing Instructions. Sow mid April in pots indoors, plant out from end May. Early May - early July (outdoors). Sow 5cm (2in) deep in a well prepared soil. It is best to erect supports before planting. Allow 2 plants per pole placed at 15-20cm (6 to 8in) apart as a structure, or grow up netting or a 4 cane wigwam. Allow about 1 metre (3ft) between wigwams.
Growing Instructions. Water copiously during dry weather, particularly when flowers are forming, as roots must never be allowed to dry out. Mulch heavily with compost/grass cuttings. Pinch out once plants have reached the tops of supports. Pick regularly to ensure continuous cropping.
Aftercare Instructions. Grows in any fertile soil in full sun.
