Tender annuals available for on-farm pick up starting mid-May!
Phaseolus vulgaris
Varieties offered:
Maxibel—Haricot vert type, heavy producer of uniform dark green fancy 6–8" pods of exceptional length, ramrod straightness and superb taste. For maximum tenderness and most succulent flavor pick early and often. (Normal-sized bushes, not as compact as Masai.) A gourmet market specialty.
Provider—very high, early yields of 5”-5.5” pods, great choice for loads of bean to eat fresh, freeze, can, or make dilly beans.
Chiba Green Soybean—grow your own edamame! Good variety for small gardens.
Masai—compact plants are good producers of 5" perfect haricot verts, best when picked pencil-slim, but still crisp and sweet when more mature, holding pretty well on the bush, easy to pick, takes up little space, container friendly. *Not available 2025
A summer staple, no kitchen garden is complete without beans. Bush beans usually set lots of beans at once, but I find if I keep them picked, I keep getting them. Masai plants are very compact and can be spaced fairly close together. Dragon Langerie sets the best color when the pods are exposed to sun, so give these guys a little more room to bring out their beauty. Maxibel/Provider— I plant them 1 per square foot. Chiba Green Soybean—2020 is our first year growing our own edamame! 3" peat pots or 4-packs.
