Customer Reviews
They are about 3 weeks in the ground now and are growing very well. I am always amazed each day to go out and see the progress. Great quality seeds. Can’t wait to start harvesting. One if my favorite varieties of beans.
Threshseed is by far the best company I have found to order my garden seed from. Germination is around 95%. I cannot review the taste of this bean because its not harvested yet but all the seeds that I have bought from Threshseed is off to a great start.
So far- so good
I have had these before, but as of yet, it is too early to plant this year.
One of my favorites! The first tender, young pods of the season get eaten raw in the garden while I am weeding. As the harvest becomes more than can be eaten fresh, sauteed and steamed, the canning, freezing and pickling begins. When I have as many put away as I need the rest of the pods are left on the vines to dry. I pick the dry pods and put them in a basket to be shelled in late fall. The beautiful dry seeds are stored in a jar to be enjoyed in soups, stews and as baked beans.
