| Over all but the last two years of forty, this variety proved to be superior to any other grown in three different areas of NYS. I note this variety for its ability to blossom and set string beans til the last frost, the multicrops beat many single set yellow string beans, and generally disease and insect free. Where can I get this seed? |
