I have pole beans....are those similiar?? I planted them around tomatoe cages. Mine grew up....and then over themselves and back to the ground because I didn't have time to bang higher stakes into the ground next to them. Now they are all over the garden because they keep growing!!! If your beans are similiar to mine, I think they are supposed to grow like a regular vine.

*Note to self--next year plant the beans AWAY from everything else!!!!*
