I grew them years ago using stacked tomato cages (the strong square ones). I rigged a makeshift trellis in a couple of earthboxes two years ago and had super productive rattlesnake beans, but the wind would tip the whole earthbox over. I could easily right them and they never seemed to notice. Last year I grew the long asian beans on a permanent trellis in a raised bed.
This year I plan to plant in grow bags along a very tall chainlink fence. I've seen people grow them along their porches on strings that provided edible privacy screens.
If they get the right temps, adequate water and nutrients, I think they'll climb anything provided for them.
