A delicious family heirloom.
6" long, broad, flat, medium-green pods have remarkably sweet, tender flavor, even when old. We have not seen another bean like this and we are excited about giving Johnny's customers the chance to grow it. Cook no longer than 3-5 minutes for best flavor and texture. Seeds are brown with dark brown stripes. Avg. 775 seeds/lb. Packet: 55 seeds.
Plant Cycle: (A) Days to Maturity or Bloom: 65
