Spagna Bianco

I was originally given some seeds and was told that they were butter beans but subsequent searching has identified them as a type of runner bean called Spagna Bianco. It does appear to be botanically a runner bean but instead of the characteristic long thin runner pods it has these fat pods. There are only three to 5 beans per pod but they are huge, round and plump like butterbeans. This winter I will be making an extra bean frame for these to grow up as they are fantastic.
