    i havnt a clue how you post pictures on this site from my pictures so ill just have to describe it hehe

    my daughter brought home what looked like a runner bean, it was black with dark pink specks on it, looked like what i had allready planted but it looks nothing like what ive got climbing up the canes, it has a thicker stalk with thick bushy like rounded leaves on :confused: any ideas?

    :)It looks like a broad bean to me, also.
    The seed description didn't sound right though.

    I'm just wondering if its a red flowered broad bean.:)
