Bush Bean 'Tobago'

  • Product number: 040650
  • Origin: Central America
  • Latin: Phaseolus vulgaris

The finest stringless needle bean. Growth is optimally compact and sturdy; the fine pods reach about 12 cm in length, and most do not get thicker than 6.5 mm! If you pick them extremely young, you cultivate them in the tradition of the true French Needle Bean. However, this variety remains very thin and stringless even at a later stage. Expect a great yield per plant in any weather condition.

Denominations:
Latin: Phaseolus vulgaris
Dutch: Naaldbonen
Also known as: Stamnaaldbonen
English: French Haricot Vert
