SCARLET RUNNER BEAN

Phaseolus coccineus 

Scarlet Runner Beans

Scarlet Runner Beans are common garden plants that are actually fascinating legumes. Their tuberous roots, bean bods, and even flower are all edible! The flowers are a gorgeous scarlet red and the seed pods are edible at a young stage, while the older beans can be cooked and then eaten.
