Josephine Jackson White Half-Runner Snap/Green Bean

25 Seeds

$ 3.99

Quantities limited for 2023.  Max. 4 packets per order.

An old-time Appalachian half-runner originating from Pike County, Kentucky, Josephine Jackson is an extremely prolific producer of 5-inch-long, tender green pods.  When evaluated by West Virginia University as a potential replacement for the tougher modern half-runner varieties, Josephine Jackson was found to have the highest eating quality of all the half-runners and also the highest yield (nearly twice the yield of the bush bean comparison).  We too, were amazed by the excellent yield and quality of this variety.  We especially liked how well filled the pods were and how tender both the pods and bust-out beans were.  An all-around great variety!  String Bean.  70 days to harvest.  Each packet contains a minimum of 25 seeds.

Excellent quality bean

I planted these mostly late summer and they are just starting to bear now in late September. They did not appreciate the less than ideal start I gave them in 7b AR, but once days shortened and nights especially became cooler, they really took off. I am just harvesting the first heavy crop of beans and they are just excellent. They are very uniform and tender. I expect from appearances they will flourish here before frost gets them. At least so far, the runners are pretty well behaved and will ramble happily up the basic support I have provided. No disease issues so far, and I hope to save seed to grow out a lot more next spring. I think this one may be a yearly grower for me.
