Use thin sticks to keep plants upright and pods off the soil. Pick regularly, once they are about 10 cm long and snap easily. Dwarf beans freeze well; simply blanch them in boiling water for a minute or two then drain, allow to cool and bag them for the freezer.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unwins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54989196820865,"sku":"WEST-31210165","price":2.39,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0544\/8758\/0845\/files\/yezx0lxwfv5.jpg?v=1763474181","url":"https:\/\/www.direct4pet.co.uk\/products\/french-bean-dwarf-quartz","provider":"Direct 4 Pet","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
