Phaseolus vulgaris ‘Cocagne’ (Bush Bean) [12 Seeds]

Description

This past year (2020), I started with just a few of these seeds, so I grew them in a container where I could keep a close eye on them. The bushy plants of this uncommon bean reached just about 1 foot tall and produced a generous amount of pretty pods (pale yellow with pinkish purple streaking) with bright white seeds. Apparently ‘Cocagne’ (also sold as ‘Cocaigne’) is delicious as a fresh shelled bean, or as a dry bean; I haven’t yet tried eating it myself. Full sun. Annual.

Harvested in August 2020. At least 12 seeds.
