I keep coming back to this variety. Have grown it in a variety of soils loam to clay and it's always done very well. Great taste, great yield, just keeps on producing. Even after Bambi and friends mowed my patch down this spring, they really bounced right back. Lovely slender bean that doesn't get tough or stringy. Highly recommended. |
