Jumbo #11G Organic Italian Flat Pod Green Bean |
"My dad used to grow these when we were kids," Joe said. "The seeds I purchased from Johnny's came up within a few days at 100% germination! They are producing loads of big, beautiful Roman beans! The beans in the photo are just about actual size. Mama Mia!"
In a follow-up note, Joe said he recently harvested some 8" beans.
Joe comes from a long line of gardening enthusiasts.
"My grandfather and great uncle from Sicily built the first greenhouses in Fayette County, Pennsylvania," he said.

Jumbo Bean Salad - 1# Johnny's Jumbo Flat Pod Romano Beans (cooked as desired, cut into 1 1/2 inch pieces and chilled); 1/2 sweet vidalia onion (sliced thinly and chopped sparingly); toss with your favorite sweet vidalia onion dressing and serve (always chilled). You may substitute regular green beans but it is not near as much fun!
Thanks for the press on my beans!

Hey Giuseppe, I know the seeds are wonderful but give a little credit to all of the Sicilian ancestors looking down on those beans, especially Papa Nunni! To:

Buona fortuna con la vostra fantastica fagioli!
Also thanks for the tip for next year on where to buy my seeds.
Your sister,
Joanne
Also from Pittsburgh but with no fabulous Romano beans.
