Nearly 2,000 years old, this historic bean was a staple crop of the Hidatsa people who populated what is now the Dakotas region of the USA. Beans can be eaten fresh when pods are young and tender but excel when grown to maturity and produce jewel red drying beans.

Can be sown in position May to early June, if you have no problem with mice or pigeons. Sow at a depth of 5cm. Alternatively, sow Indoors in module trays from April to May. Beans are fast growing, so don’t be tempted to sow too early. Harden off and plant out after all risk of frost has passed. A great filler for mid summer gaps in your veg beds.
Grows to a height of 45cm and doesn’t require support. Pick when pods are young and tender to enjoy fresh or leave pods on plant to semi dry to harvest drying beans for storage.
Sowing Months: February – May
Harvest Months: July – October
Position: Full sun
