Bird Egg Blue Bush Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) This heirloom is a one of the most flavourful snap beans we have grown. Even the deer think so, as we had a complete row eaten in 2020. Grown again in 2021 with great success thanks to netting and fencing! Pods contain 6 round blue-purple coloured egg shaped beans. Pods are smooth, easily digested, and remain edible for a long picking window. When allowed to dry, they are fantastic in soups or mashed.
85 days to maturity
40 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.
