Overall Taste Yield Ease	Richmond, Georgia, United States Frost Free Season: 183 - 203 days Soil Texture: Sand Garden Size: Large - More than 1,600 square feet (40' x 40') Sun Exposure: More than 8 hours per day
A round slender dark green snap bean that develops slowly. Harvest window is almost twice as long as most snapbeans. This has been a hard year on beans, douught and heat came early in May, Savanah has kept pace with Contender. A bit behind Hialeah in yield and plant vigor.
