PREMIER SEEDS DIRECT - Dwarf French Bean - Purple Queen - 200 Italian Seeds

These are so easy to grow, I used them last year and just had a couple of plants, but they produced a lot of beans, we ate them raw as well as cooked. They are a great purple colour and provided a bit of colour amongst the other peas and beans I grew. Ordered again this year, planted the seeds last week and already have about 8 plants which once the cold has gone I will plant out. I would definitely recommend this product.

Been a dreadful year, all the other dwarf beans failed to germinate. Had a nice crop and more to come

Waiting for full bloom

The only thing was that the plant wasn't really able to support itself and I had to use stakes however very nice bean pods beautiful colour and taste. When cooked though they loose the blueness same as the purple carrots do. But I thought they were good enough to reorder!

Good germination rate but quite a few aren't dwarfs and require staking, tbh even the dwarf ones need staking as they don't stand up very well to a bit of adverse weather and end up on the ground. They weren't as productive as I'd like so probably won't get grown again next year but they do look quite nice, a bit like a sweet pea, so I may plant a few in the garden instead.The beans themselves are a lovely dark purple but of course he green when cooked but still very nice.

They arrived the next day, were as cheap as chips and have all germinated and are thriving in the garden. Excellent.

All seeds have grown, I buy most of my seeds from this company and have done now for a good few years... always very pleased.

Chose not to review until I saw the results... fair but short season... prefer climbing varieties.
