This is the first year to grow these and I am really impressed with the yeild of the plant. It out produces my old standby Kentucky Wonder and even the pole beans I have planted don't do as well as this one. We have little rain and this baby is still going..
Great bean and I will plant it again...

This is our first season for growing these tender, tasty beans which we harvest when they reach 5-6" in length. The plants add colorful interest to the veggie garden whilst also being very productive. Will definitely grow these again!

Royal Burgundy introduced as an improved version of Royalty. Purple pods are slightly larger and the plant is more prolific. A very good snap bean.

Very prolific producer of tender pod snap beans. Young beans are stringless. Beautiful purple-green leaves with purple stems, various shades of purple flowers, purple pods that turn green when cooked. I have grown this variety for 4 seasons and have never been disappointed in the results.
