Celine
CERTIFIED ORGANIC. The pretty pods of this slender wax bean are stringless and tender. Compared to other purple varieties, the colour of the beans are noticeably brighter and the pods pop nicely against the green leaves of the plant. The interior flesh of the beans are yellow, which contrasts beautifully with the purple exterior, allowing creative cooks to experiment with culinary use of colour. Pods develop early and the robust, productive bush plants also have high resistance to Bean Common Mosaic Virus.

How to grow
Bush beans need warm soil to germinate, especially when using these untreated seeds. Do not plant in cold wet soil!
Timing: Direct sow from late spring to early summer in warm soil. Optimal soil temperature for germination: 21-32 degrees C (70-90F). Seeds should sprout in 8-16 days.
Seeding: Sow 2-5cm (1-2") deep, and 5-10cm (2-4") apart, in rows 45cm (18") apart. Thin to 15-20cm (6-8") to allow for robust growth.
Growing: Well drained, warm soil is best. Raised beds help with both drainage and warmth. Use 1 cup of balanced organic fertilizer for each 3m (10') of row. Too much nitrogen is often the cause of poor pod set and delayed maturity. Bush beans prefer full sun exposure, but can tolerate partial shade with a reduce yield.
Seed specs: Usual seed life: 3 years.
