Description

An all-around jewel of a bean. ‘Jade' is a favorite of gardeners for its consistently long, slender, straight, stringless pods that are tender and sweet with a striking dark-green color. Upright, bushy plants hold the pods high, avoiding tip rot. In addition to being very productive, the plants are more tolerant of heat and cold than other types. Resistant to common bean mosaic viruses 1 and NY15, as well as curly top virus and rust. Ready to harvest when they cleanly snap in two. The more you pick, the more you get!
