Hi I planted some dwarf safari french beans but something else has grown instead! It has grown in the line i planted so must have grown from the seed but it's definately not beans. They are green spiny leaved with white flowers on. About 2 feet tall now. Any ideas please? Don't want to dig up and throw away until I know what it is. thanks

Green spiny leaves and white flowers makes me think of some kind of datura like thorn apple, which is a weed. Are the flowers trumpet shaped? I'd be interested to see a photo to see what you have got.

Didn't someone else on GoY plant what they were sold as bean seeds only to have Datura grow Bertie?

I seem to remember that too. Just as well the datura doesn't produce pods that look like beans!

Indeed!
