These tender gourmet beans are refined and straight, with rich flavour. The medium dark green, round pods grow 13-18cm (5-7) long. They have a longer set period with consistent quality, producing later into the season than other varieties. Jade has resistance to Bean Common Mosaic Virus, Rust, and Curly Top Virus.The pods are held off the ground by stout branches. Jade needs warmer soil to germinate, so delay planting until well after the last frost date.
