I grew this on a make-shift trellis of old tent poles and twine. These vines grew vigorously and produced will until our Zone 8 summer got too hot. Once the heatwave passed they started producing again. I was pretty happy with them I used them as a greenbean and a dry bean. While I personally prefer bush beans I did like them. Their flavor was great. They did get stringy if I didnt stay on top of picking them - but that's on me. Nearly any bean starts to get tough if you let it grow too long.For the Summer of 2024 I will absolutely grow them again. I grow bush for large harvest all at once/ storage purposes and the vines are great for having greenbeans all summer. I'm also happy this bean makes a great dual purpose bean!The vines grew probably 15 feet. The trellis I made was 10 feet. After reaching the top they began to wind back down. It was incredible how much they grew.

We love this variety of pole beans. The seeds germinated and grew well.

We purchase these seeds every year at our Co-op, but the pricing on Amazon is much better and look so forward to planting them this spring!

Didn't grow as much as I thought they would

So it means pole. You have to put up some tall ass posts and string up some twine all the way across up and down from the bottom to the top. When the stalk starts going back to the bottom then weave them back into the string and send the vine back up to the top. These beans like to be picked leave them there and they quit producing. They are awesome to can and have no strings. Sweet enough to eat off the vine in the garden. You can fill up a Qt jar fast as they are so long that you can cut 3 beans out of one. They do not need to be strung. No strings in these beans. Go for it. You'll and your neighbors(there is a hell of a lot of them if you keep picking and weaving). and mom will be proud of you. We had beans into the end of November. Remember keep picking and weaving back up toward the sky. They do not like to hit the ground. Also the beans on the inside for the ones you missed picking are great to shell out and add to your pot when cooking the green beans.

Purchased this bean seed pack with hopes of a Burpee seed quality. Evidently they were old as only 2 out of 50 sprouted in garden after 2 weeks. Also, upon returning the item, I was not allowed to state the real reason for return. It was a pre-programmed/written reason that could NOT be deleted or changed. And the reason did not even make any sense compared to my “real†reason for returning, which was that they would not sprout. Meaning, they were probably very old.

Exactly what I was looking for. Moved to a new area and couldn't find half runners. These worked great.
