Pole Bean Seeds – Grandma Nellie’s Yellow Mushroom, ORGANIC

Description

Phaseolus vulgaris

ORGANIC. This variety is known for its mushroom notes when cooked, brining a unique umami flavor to any dish. Yellow pods and are best picked at fives inches long. Vines can reach up to seven to nine feet long and trellising is a must. This bean comes from Nellie Chernoff, who received this variety from a Russian woman, and grew the beans in Kamsack, Saskatchewan. In 1988 she passed the seeds on to her granddaughter Marge Mozelinkey, who has been growing them ever since and eventually passed the seed along to Southern Exposure Seed Exchange. 

Direct seed into the garden after all danger of frost has passed. Pole beans will need full sun and well-draining soil. Provide a trellis for these beans. Water well to ensure good germination. Once germinated, pole beans will need at least an inch of water per week. Consistently harvesting the pods will result in a long harvest window. Annual.

Minimum of 40 seeds per 14 gram packet.
