Appaloosa Bush Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) A striking heirloom bean producing long green slender pods with mottled rusty streaks at the bottom. Seeds are also quite distinguished with ivory white with mottled speckles of brown, purple, and tan resembling the pattern of an Appaloosa horse. A great snap bean for eating fresh, especially when harvested at an earlier stage. Beans have a mild flavour with a firm, meaty texture when they are cooked. Excellent in soups and chili dishes.
90-97 days to maturity
30 seeds per packet
Planting Instructions: Direct sow after the danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed to 15C. Plant seeds 1" deep and space 2–3" apart in rows 18–36" apart. Keep soil evenly moist during germination. Bush beans prefer full sun and well-drained soil.
