Everwilde Farms - 50 Organic Tenderette Green Bush Bean Seeds - Gold Vault Jumbo Bulk Seed Packet

These vigorous plants grow up to 20" tall and keep bearing during the heat of summer. They produce 6" pods in abundance that stay tender for a long time. The pods are dark green with white seeds and have a delicious flavor, whether cooked fresh, canned, or frozen. They mature in 55 days. The Charter Seed Company of Twin Falls, Idaho, brought this heat loving bean to the market in 1962. However, the vegetable we now recognize as the common bean has its roots in South America; some historians as far back as the Pre-Incan civilization in Peru. When Columbus arrived in the New World, he found green beans growing with the maize of the Indians. Columbus and other European explorers introduced this new vegetable to their countries, where it eventually spread to the rest of Europe and all over the world.
