Yellow French beans

I've just picked my first yellow French beans today - a bush bean called Cresco sold under the packet name Vita Sementi A Taste of Italy (owned by Thompson & Morgan).
Has anybody every grown them? I've been disappointed by how few of them germinated and wonder whether it's because they're a variety not really suitable for our UK climate, although they were sown during our warmer weather, so that shouldn't have been a problem. The packet did say they needed minimum soil temperature of 20 degrees, which they did get.
