Trionfo Violetto Pole Bean Seeds

These Beans are the Bomb!!

I am on the 8th picking at least and they are still flowering in Z5a, WI. They are planted N-S and I will use a cattle panel arch next year. I surely didn’t have high enough trellis, but the asparagus on the backside of this hedge is helping out 😂. Vigorous vines! A little slow on the start, but wait as they take off!😂

It was difficult to keep up especially in extreme heat we just had. They can turn into baseball bats fast and keeping them picked helps production. The taste is very good and I don’t believe the large ones had strings or tuff.

Highly recommended!!

I’m not a huge string bean fan, but these are absolutely delicious. I will for sure be growing double the amount next year. They are tender, stringless, and savory. I find the flavor to be less sharp and “green” than the average string bean. I’ve yet to try them cooked (they don’t make it past my garden gate), but I imagine they’d be great sautéed with garlic. Production definitely slowed down when we had some persistent dry summer heat, but now that we’re getting more rain the beans seem to be making a comeback. I also had some pest issues when I first planted them out, so it was a slower start, but they recovered surprisingly well.
