Beans! Gotta love 'em! But which ones? (See details)
Almost planting time and I have an area set aside for green beans. Anybody have a favorite type they like to plant? The designated place Has 6–8 hours of full sun.
I haven’t grown green beans before, tips for growing as well as varieties are welcome.
Thanks!

I like Lima beans, so I would plant them. But… others don’t.
Well, I specified green beans, so that’s kinda what I’m going for here.

I didn’t know there were many varieties of green beans. I have no space to grow these, but I’m enjoying looking through the online seed catalogs
The “stringless” description of Burpees Stringless Green Pod appeals to me.
I like the purple stripes on the Dragon’s Tongue
Or look at the Italian Rose. It looks like aged red paint.
@jaytkay, oooooh! Some of those look fascinating! Thanks for the links! :-)
Just a little tip: any of the purple/red varieties of green beans are going to be healthier because those colors accompany Anthocyanins content.
Plus they look kinda pretty and unique.
@Buttonstc: I am incredibly shallow, I can be a sucker for a pretty bean! :-)
