Bob's Black Seeded Beans

This bean has been handed down through our donor's family for three generations, grown originally in Kent, then Sussex and now Cheshire. The 'Bob' this variety is named after grew the beans for 50 years, before handing it on to our donor to care for. Produces vigorous plants with lots of foliage and pods up to 30cm long with jet black seeds. Our donor says: “I gave up growing any other types many years ago as they never rivalled this one for vigour, taste, cropping and family pride in keeping the bean going."
