Product Description

High yields of flavorful pods
Tall, 7-8 ft. plants
Open-pollinated, heirloom variety

Snap right off of stem, no cutting required. If they don't snap off, they are probably over mature and likely to be tough or stringy. Plants are 7–8' tall and bear long green pods, regularly exceeding 10" and retaining their tenderness up to 10". After the first heavy crop, if plant is getting too tall, cut it off, leaving 6"–12" of stem. It will come back and produce another heavy crop in the fall. 55 DAYS.
