These beans are fantastic! They get very, very large and still are tender enough to eat. The yield has been great and they weren\'t hindered by our recent 36 degree night. Only thing is I wish the cranberry color persisted on the larger beans, but it doesn\'t really matter since any color blanches out with cooking. |
