Purple Queen Snap Bean Bush:
The Bean Bush Purple Queen, 'Phaseolus vulgaris', has beautiful deep purple pods that turn deep forest green when cooked. The beans have a great fresh flavor and they are also good canned or frozen. The snap bean is eaten pod and all and is one of those vegetables like tomatoes that taste significantly better grown at home rather than bought at a grocery store. This bush bean prefers rich, organic, well drained and warm soil. The soil must be kept evenly moist but not soggy.
