Are a disaster this year. I planted them in May, they refused to flower
until recently although growing well. I have three tiny beans an inch long
and a few flowers now. Too late. Is it the weather?

Probably. My experience is that runners do better when it is wet, and
french with a hot dry summer.

My runners are - doing a runner this year.

I was told that the naturally favoured habitat of runner beans is in the
vicinity of waterfalls in Central/South America, where they thrive on
the airborne water droplets.

Seems reasonable...
