Bean - Blooming Prairie

Minimum Seed Count: 20

SOME BEANS WILL BE COMPLETELY WHITE. THE MORE THE BEANS ARE EXPOSED TO SUN THE DARKER THEY GET!!

The Blooming Prairie Bean lives up to its name with pods that look like a painter’s canvas. Each bean is patterned in creamy white with dramatic purple splotches and streaks, almost as if ink was splashed across their surface. The colors deepen as they mature, creating a striking contrast that makes them stand out both in the garden and on the table. The vines are bushy and vigorous , dotted with delicate blossoms before giving way to these artful, purple-marked beans. We have not seen a bush bean produce like this one!
