Description
‘Flageolet Vert’ is a bush bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) variety that I first grew back in 2019. From what I have read, the small, pale green seeds are supposed to have outstanding flavor as a dried bean. I haven’t yet tried it that way, but I can report that it was very tasty as a fresh green bean when picked young, while the pods are still slender and smooth. You can read more about the history of this rare French heirloom bean in this article: https://sites.google.com/site/knowyourvegetables/know-your-beans/know-your-flageolet-bean/flageolet-bean-history
The plants are rather compact, and I suspect they would grow well in containers, which would make harvesting the pods easier. Full sun. Annual.
Collected in mid August 2023. At least 15 seeds. Shipping to US addresses only.
Please read the germination information as well before ordering.
