Romano, Pole Bean (Organic) (Phaseolus vulgaris)
These Italian style beans produce six-inch long pods full of rich flavor in just seventy days. The stringless flat beans are terrific for freezing or table use and are best when harvested young. This bean grows on tall vines up to nine feet high. As the name suggests, Romano heirlooms beans hail from Italy. However, the vegetable we now recognize as the common bean has its roots in South America.
