| Description: |
Originally from Clay County, Kentucky, this hard-to-find half runner dry bean is tan-colored with dark pointilist markings that cluster into a black spot. The beans have a slightly flattened rectangular shape. Though it can be grown as a bush bean, it will send out runners, so it does best if provided with support to grow vertically.

Not all seeds germinated in first two plantings (I blame the neighborhood cats who treats the raised beds as a little box.) Eventually, a few plants grew well. Beans were small; flavor was a bit bland. Six plants produced about a half of a cup of dry beans |

Very slow start but grew phenomenally in the hot weather. Excellent taste and keep its shape during cooking. Not easy to remove the beans from the dried pods, however. The yield was also only average. |

Sturdy, compact plants with large yield. Dry beans were attractive; white with black speckles and when cooked had a meaty texture and good flavor. |
