Successive sowings every 1 to 2 weeks will ensure summer-long harvest of fresh, colorful beans. Packet includes: 'Blue Lake 274', an heirloom favorite, noted for excellent flavor and texture, fresh or frozen (white seed); 'Resistant Cherokee Wax', a vigorous plant producing bright yellow pods (black seed); and 'Purple Queen', with glossy deep purple pods that turn forest green when cooked (brown seed).

NOTE: In very hot summer areas, skip sowing as high heat approaches, temperatures consistently above 90°F will prevent beans from forming.
