Bean 'Purple Podded Pole'

Purple Podded Pole bean is one of the most beautiful and vigorous snap beans we've ever grown. The 6' vines produce lots of delicious beans that ripen from green to purple. They are tender and stringless when young. The purple color makes them easy to spot among the vines. Lovely purple flowers, too!

This Ozark mountains heirloom was introduced by Henry Field in the 1930's.
