← Part of Vegetables, Diggers Club

Savour the flavour of the past with this dwarf Italian heirloom. This wide, flat 12cm-long bean is delicious as a green bean as well as a dried bean for use in casseroles and soups. Excellent disease resistance and productivity.

Choose a position in full sun and enrich the soil with compost and well-rotted manure prior to planting. Plant at the same depth as it was in the pot, after the last pot. Mulch to protect the shallow root system. Water regularly. Harvest daily for an abundant crop.
