Pink Tip Greasy is a popular old Appalachian greasy bean originating from Haywood County, North Carolina. The name Pink Tip refers to the pigmentation of the blossom end that devel ops as the beans dry down on the vine. Plants produce enormous yields of short, fat beans with a shiny hull that is characteristic of all greasy beans. Beans do need to be de-strung, but we find it well-worth the effort as the incredible flavor and substance of these beans sets them apart from traditional stringless varieties. Matures a couple weeks later than our other greasy beans and may not be suitable for those in the northernmost climates. We would instead recommend Pine Mountain Greasy for those gardeners. White seeded. Approximately 85 to 90 days to harvest. Each packet contains a minimum of 25 seeds. Show more
