Beans
« on: August 10, 2007, 18:23:22 »
This year we have grown 2 sorts of pole bean. Cherokee trail of tears and Coco Sophie. Have only tried the latter yet and they are the nicest bean I have ever tasted. Really buttery. Has anyone else tried them

We grow Blue Coco... a heritage bean like Trail of Tears... probably Sophie's granddad...

Growing Blue Coco for the first time this year. Very impressed, both with yield & flavour.

Anyone grown "Extra Hatif de Juillet"? It just keeps producing!
