I really like this bean. It produces well. It tastes great. And it is great because it has brown seeds which do not rot as much in cold damp soil. This is important when you live in a northern area with wet soil in the spring. I've never had a problem with germination with these. They freeze well after being blanched. I only rated it a four because there are so many bean varieties still out there for me to try.
