Aintree is another popular variety of runner bean but has the advantage of being very tolerant of high temperatures so even in a hot summer crops should not suffer as badly as other varieties.
They produce pods of about 11 inches which are smooth and straight.
The Red Rum variety is similar but this has the advantage of being very resistant to Halo Blight which makes it a good choice for the organic grower.
