Royal Burgundy bush bean produces amazingly purple-violet colored beans that grow on sturdy compact bush plants that can grow upwards to 40-51 cm (16-20") tall with a spread of 38-45 cm (15-18”) wide.  Seeds have a good cold tolerance for germination. Pretty purple flowers keep blooming to produce a long harvest.  Produces an abundant amount of dark purple 12-15 cm (5-6") pods. The pods turn green after 2 minutes of cooking. Seeds are beige.

Planting Instructions:   
  • Direct sow from end of May to June 15th preferably, but can also be sown to the  beginning of July.  Try to plant during a warm, dry spell.  Soil must be warm. If it is not warm enough, seeds will rot. Beans require a minimum soil temperature of 16°C (60°F) and a maximum of 24°C (75°F). Seeds will not germinate properly if planted too deeply or too early in cold wet ground.  Sow seeds 2.5 cm (1") deep, 5-8 cm (2-3") apart, in rows 45-60 cm (18-24") apart.
  • Soil Conditions:  Well worked rich, loose and well-drained soil. Ideal pH: 5.5-6.8 
  • Planting Depth:   2-5 cm (1") deep, 5-8 cm (2-3") apart.
  • Germination:  7-14 days.
  • Height at Maturity:  Plants reach 40-51 cm (16-20") tall. Compact bush habit. Spread 38-45 cm (15-18”) wide 
  • Days to Maturity:    50-60 days. 
  • Watering:   Low water requirements at planting- moisten soil for germination, medium at flowering and then heavy through harvest.
  • Sun/Shade:  Full Sun     
  • Seed Spacing:      5-8 cm (2-3") apart, in rows 45-60  cm (18-24") apart.

Additional Information
Avoid planting in soil that stays consistently damp or wet.   We generally plant 3-4 rows at a time and space out rows at 20-25 cm (8-10”) apart. It is perfect because most people can reach across that width.  You can grow 3-4 times the amount of heirloom beans in the same space, you reduce the amount of area for weeds, and you'll save on water.  It is about 50-60 days for purple beans, 100+ days for dry beans. Beans typically need warm soil of 18°C (65°F) or higher. Grows best in full sun with well watered soil. Regular harvesting of the young pods will ensure a greater yield. Pick frequently for maximum yields, but avoid disturbing foliage in wet weather to prevent spread of fungal diseases. White-seeded beans usually don’t germinate as well as dark-seeded.
