Phaseolus vulgaris
LOT#BP23215
A stunning and delicious purple pole bean that was discovered in the 1930's in the Ozark Mountains. Climbing vines grow to 1.8-2.0m (6-7’) tall and they require vertical space to grow. A sturdy fence, poles or trellising will work nicely. Vines produce massive yields of bright purple, stringless pods that are both sweet and tender. This pole bean tolerates early plantings in cooler soil. The entire plant is tinged purple and is quite beautiful with its’ lilac flowers. Beans turn green when cooked. Left on the vine to ripen, the dry beans can be used make tasty stews and soups.
