There is also something called "Cow Peas" that are actually bean.

Cow peas and beans are a different species.
Cowpea Vigna unguiculata
Bean Phaseolus vulgaris
Two different critters.
Yet the runner bean is a different one too Phaseolus coccineus.


I have my reasons for sowing them in containers.
I dont want snails and slug eating them as the sprout and it is too cold yet to plant in the ground by just a little bit and I need them to sprout like now.
