By: Meriel Bradley

This is a delicious bean with great flavour and a nice firm pod when cooked.

It produces for me all summer once grown, and just when you think it has finished it produces again. I will generally be able to harvest all to way to the first frost.

I start the seeds inside about 3 weeks before planting outside to get a head start on the growing season.
