This bush variety produces thin 4-6 inch long beans on 8 inch tall plants. The best thing about this bean is that it is very thin and tender. Additionally, the beans do not get large and tough if left on the plant. No need to pick every day. Yields are moderate and are lower if beans are left on plants for many days. Overall a nice variety. Try it if you have the space. Also available from Wood Prairie Farm as organic seeds.
