Bean Seed
One of the best green beans in our gardens. This new variety is checking all the right boxes for gardeners. Plants are sturdy and upright, holding beans well off the ground. Pods are a beautiful dark green and straight with an almost glossy look. Seeds are very slow to develop making for a longer harvest window. Flavor is superb with virtually no fiber. Try Dark Horse for a look at what green beans really can be.
