Purple Pole Bean SeedsAdmired for their rich purple hue and delicately sweet taste, these crisp, stringless pods are simple to cultivate and collect. Featuring green flesh and translucent white beans, they offer robust earthy notes, with pods reaching lengths of 6 7 inches. While they can be enjoyed both raw and cooked, their vibrant violet color may fade slightly during cooking. For peak flavor, its best to harvest purple pole beans when the pods can be easily halved.
