VEGETABLES / BEAN
SNAP-POLE
Snap bean with striped pods, seeds ripe from 70-120 days in 2016, and 100-120 in 2017. 6-7" long, 3/8"-7/16" round dry pods contain 3-7 seeds (up to 9 in 2017), tan with cream and brown streaks. From 10 plants, I got 17 pods in 2016 (in full sun, hot and VERY dry), but 92 pods with 524 seeds in 2017 (in part shade, dry June and July) from 7 plants - my most productive bean. In 2018 (July drought) it did poorly. The photo shows 2017 beans including black seeds. Striped seeds produced only striped ones in 2018. 25 (or more) striped seeds from 2019 to 2021. 100% 3-year germination.
