Product description

Southern Exposure Seed Exchange - Popular northern heirloom, though it was likely developed in VA by Jacob Trout.] Beautiful and distinctive seeds. Large, kidney-shaped beans are spotted with maroon markings on a white coat. Excellent for baking and soups. 

  • Certified Organic 
  • Heirloom 
  • Especially well-suited to the South-East 
  • From Small Farms 

    Instructions - Similar to Snap Beans, peppering seeds with inoculants before sowing helps ensure good growth. Beans may benefit from a source of soluble nitrogen (if your soil is low in nitrogen) during the first 3 weeks until nitrogen-fixing nodules develop, but do not apply nitrogen after this period. Dark-seeded beans are more resistant to rotting in cool soil than light-seeded beans. Beans need a minimum soil temperature of 65 degrees F to germinate well, otherwise, seeds may rot. Harvest dried pods before rains so seeds won’t mold inside pods. Continue drying pods for 2-4 weeks under cover before shelling and storing.
