Exclusive to Diggers through our Seed Donation program, the original seed was brought to Australia by John, an Italian Gardener, who shared this seed over a decade ago with Kel York (Diggers member and Seed Donor). A standout in our trials, this was one of the first beans to crop, bearing pods in just 8-9 weeks! Most commonly used as a dried bean because of its rich sweet beans, when young they can be enjoyed fresh from the vine. This is a rare heirloom bean cultivated by the Iroquois First Nations of Kahnawake, in Québec. We are proud to be able to share this precious heirloom with Diggers Members across Australia.

Sofia ★★★★★

Planted these in late spring and the germination rate was fantastic, every single seed took off. The fact that this variety came from an Italian gardener's original seed stock makes me feel like I'm growing a piece of history here in my own veggie patch.

Benjamin S. ★★★★★

I was curious how these would handle our cool Melbourne spring, but the vines are already loaded with flat, tender beans. The story behind this seed donation program makes them feel extra special to grow.

James ★★★★★

Germinated in just four days, which was quicker than I expected, and the vines are already climbing strong. The heritage story from the Italian gardener adds a nice touch, but the real win is how sturdy the plants feel in our veggie patch.
