Pole Bean, Anellino Giallo

Pole Bean Yellow Annelino.  Yellow Curly, Late Climbing French Bean. Roma taste, but has a round pod with an amazing curve to it. Lovely color, taste and texture.  Nickname, Shrimp Bean because of shape.  Stringless.  Good producer.  They are not fast growing nor do they produce prolifically over a long period of time. They do however, produce in vast quantity over a short period and are some of the most beautiful and sweet beans around. It is an Italian heirloom that’s actually quite rare.

They are a buttercup yellow and produce over a short period of time. They are also a bit finicky in their growth pattern often maturing weeks after other pole beans have started producing. After about 2 months of being in the ground, they seemed to produce a boat-load of beans. I’d consider them a bit of a prima donna but definitely worth the effort. They will melt in your mouth!

Grow your own. It is absolutely worthwhile. 

35 gram packet. 45-50 seeds.
