Borlotti del Vardano Bush Bean Seeds

A lovely European heirloom bean from Italy, considered to be in the Borlotti group; I find this bean to be rather different from other Borlotti types. These seeds are slimmer and elongated, most of the Borlottis I’ve seen are on the round side and larger. This bean grows into a very tall bush, one of the tallest I’ve seen, and the tan beans are gently flecked in dark pink. Production is quite good. The plants do need adequate spacing as they can crowd one another easily, so space accordingly. Fine variety indeed.  Gratefully received from the wonderful collection of Paula Dubeski, Alberta, Canada.
