I'm not much on heirloom seeds, but bought a package of a winter variety called "Lakota" from Seeds of Change to try. Container was too heavy to move outside once planted with the starts, so left it in the greenhouse where fruit could ripen and be sheltered from early killing frosts. Plants are very healthy; runners are a bit over 7 feet long with blooms on them everywhere! Problem IS they're all MALES: there isn't a female in sight! Also have a container of cukes in there that are being pollinated and setting fruit, but am totally STUMPED in regards to the Lakotas. HELP!!!
