This bean is absolutely gorgeous! Violet-purple outside and bright green inside, it is fun for kids to grow and has a rich, delicious flavor. The 5-6” long pods turn green after cooking, providing a built-in blanching indicator. Royal Burgundy performs exceptionally well under cool conditions. Also a good container variety. Great for freezing, canning or fresh eating. Buckskin color seeds.
