Very easy to grow. Plants are upright which help keep the pods off the damp ground when the beans are drying down. Rich flavour, perfect for chilis, baked beans and slow cooked winter meals. Mottled tan seeds.

Growing recommendations
Direct seed when average daytime temperatures reach 16°C for best results. Space seeds 2” apart, 1” deep, in rows 18” apart. Harvest when the plants have died back and the beans are dry and rattle in their pods. In a wet fall, entire plants can be snipped and brought under cover to allow the beans to dry fully.

We're trialing and breeding new varieties!
This is the most challenging and thrilling part of our work.
The trialing allows us to test varieties of a same species side by side and determine which one(s) taste and perform the best.
Breeding and variety maintenance means selecting for traits that are desirable such as flavor, texture, disease resitance, earliness and hardiness, just to mention a few.
You're one of a kind
If you're not 100% satisfied with your purchase, let us know and we'll make it right!
But we'd also love to hear from you if you see something wicked cool in your garden or if you know of a variety in need of stewardship.
