A yellow filet type with exceptional quality. Soleil is a gourmet type, perfectly suited as a baby yellow bean. A great choice for the home gardener looking for high quality, or the market gardener selling a premium product. Soleil produces a very heavy set resulting in good yields. The concentrated set makes for easy picking. Beans are 4 inches long, very straight and light yellow in colour. Resistant to common bean mosaic and halo blight. Your kitchen garden color palette is sure to be complimented by these lovely golden filet beans. Soleil is French for sun and if you like wax beans, you will love these. Pale yellow, uniform and straight, Soleil is a baby filet bean with the subtle, buttery flavor of wax beans and yields a concentrated harvest to grace your summer table. Babysit filet beans carefully, harvesting at about 4” long, between 1/6” and 1/4” in diameter right before eating for a taste of heaven on your plate. Serve with a light sprinkle of chopped fresh chervil to bring out Soleil’s sweetness. Days to maturity: 62 Go to table of bean varieties
