Pole / bush bean variety?

Tonto Basin, AZ

What's a good variety for desert climate? We grew Fortex last year with only mixed results, although it could have been us & not the variety.

Thanks,

Frank, we're not desert but our rainfall is less than 30 inches per year and we have almost constant wind. I am growing White Lady pole beans for the first time and they're not doing so great because of the wind. I have bush beans that are doing great though. The variety is "Grenoble" from Johnny's. I grow those in the winter. The guy at Johnny's said they also have heat tolerant varieties, but I didn't order any. Not sure if I want to try beans here in the summer.
