Lazy Housewife
[description action="start"]
This old-time heirloom pole bean was first introduced by W. Atlee Burpee back in 1885. Its pods are green and entirely stringless, with a rich and buttery flavour when cooked. Harvest as a snap bean at 12-15cm (5-6") or allow them to mature to 20cm (8") for the all-white, pearl-like seeds to develop for use as dry beans all winter. Lazy Housewife was the first stringless snap bean introduced in North America, making it faster and easier to prepare for cooking, hence its name. Times have changed since it was named, but we are pleased to offer this classic taste of gardens past. Provide a trellis for this enthusiastic climber.
