Maxibel

Friday, 30 October 2009 12:42

A fancy-type 'classic French filet' bean with very long, 7-1/2" extremely thin (only 1/4" across), dark green pods. Flavorful and attractive black beans fill the pods all season long. Best yet, it's stringless - the first 'classic filet' bean so honored! This stringless bean is very thin and very flavorful Maxibel was the first full-size, high-quality, bush filet bean on the market. Very straight, dark green pods are borne on 22-26 inch tall sturdy bushes. Best suited for hand picking, the concentrated sets are easy to harvest.  Unsurpassed bush bean flavor. This one is a must for flavor conscious gardeners or market growers who want French/filet beans without trellising. Mottled purple seeds. •    Spacing: 4-12" •    Maturity: 60 Go to table of bean varieties
