As described by Baker Creek; "A great stir-fry variety that produces lots of tasty green pods. This variety also has beautiful white blossoms; perfect to grow over an arbor fence. Pick when small and tender, as old pods and dry beans may be poisonous! This variety produces early and over a long season."
