The trio of bush beans is a vibrant and productive mix of three distinct varieties, each contributing unique colors and flavors to the garden. These beans are characterized by their compact growth, making them suitable for small spaces and easy to harvest without the need for staking.
Varieties
- Green Bean: Often represented by varieties like 'Blue Lake 274', these beans are known for their round, tender pods that are stringless when harvested young. They are excellent for fresh consumption and freezing.
- Yellow Wax Bean: Varieties such as 'Resistant Cherokee Wax' produce bright yellow pods that conceal black seeds. They maintain their stringless quality throughout their growth and are ideal for canning or freezing.
- Purple Bean: The 'Purple Queen' variety features deep purple pods that turn green upon cooking. These beans are not only visually appealing but also tender and flavorful.
