Anyway, they are green and they are beans

OK! I'm changing my 'green beans' answer to 'runner beans' after much scrutinising of the iffy image!
Quite sure. I've now sourced a picture to prove it. Quite why I'm spending valuable time doing this. I've no idea...
We're using the first picture posted, with the answers visible.
Yes. I've sourced an identical picture (just of the beans, not the rest). If @SatNavSaysStraightOn and I are wrong (according to your original picture posted with answers visible), then we must assume that as Americans don't really have 'runner beans', they identified the picture in question 'green beans'.

I'll call the judges decision if they are green beans! They look nothing like green beans and a certain person will have to prove to me that they are green beans by providing me with a sample of American green beans! They are runner beans. I have some growing up a wall outside!

when the answer is wrong and we have the evidence it is wrong, yes!
Runner Beans are considered poisonous by most Americans, they'd not touch them.
