🌱Sowing Outdoors
Sowing occurs from spring to winter in full sun, in fertile, well-cultivated soil, as long as temperatures are above freezing. Bury seeds 1 inch deep in the soil, 4 inches apart, and in rows 15 feet apart.

🌱Container Planting
Sow seeds in large pots at least 15 to 20 inches in diameter and 15 inches tall, filled with fresh, moist, high-quality potting soil. After a few weeks, sow seeds in additional pots until the end of June for a long-lasting harvest.

🌱Planting Tips
Be sure to thin out seedlings properly—if seedlings have enough room to mature, you'll get more productive, disease-free plants.

🌱Harvesting and Use
Pick these fragrant, delicious French beans frequently, at least every other day or while the pods are still tender. The more beans you pick, the more productive your plants will be. Quickly steam, sauté or roast the beans until they are soft and crisp, then enjoy them to fully appreciate their enticing flavor.

Days to Germination: 5-8 days
