About
Heirloom green bean with classic flavor. Round, straight, stringless pods.
Growing
Direct-sow successively every 2–3 weeks for continuous harvest. Don't crowd.
Harvest
Pick at 5–6 in while pencil-thick (about 1/4 in) and before the seeds swell and bulge the pod. Choose smooth, firm, round pods that snap crisply. Pick every 2–3 days — frequent picking keeps the plants setting new beans.
