Brad Lancaster mentions his climbing tubers he uses that may be suitable for your region here:

hmmmm...



climate-wise probably yes, space-wise don't know if i can hack it.
man that is a nice video. great sponge too.
lemme think...
my situation is i only have room for 2 five-gallon containers, the rest is planter boxes.
planters are too shallow for tubers, might be too shallow for beans as well (6" would be pushing it) so i'm planning herbs in those.
so im looking for the best climbing buck for the deep-pot bang, given fixed number of 2, and no addition/construction (risk of killing people below from objects falling).
i think pole beans could go farther and fruit across the whole length of the foliage, rather than the edible part be limited to the container.
