Fast growth, early maturity, and a long, productive season are the hallmarks of this remarkable pole bean. Seychelles Organic is an AAS winner for outstanding productivity and flavour. Its vines climb straight up, 2.1-2.7m (7-9') tall, clinging to whatever trellis is provided. The plump, stringless beans are perfect at 13-15cm (5-6") long, and as long as they are kept picked, the plants just keep producing. With adequate support, this pole bean can even be grown in patio containers. Seychelles Organic pole bean seeds come from Dutch breeding and boast good resistance to Bean Common Mosaic Virus.

| Starting |
Seeds can be started indoors, or sowed directly. Set seeds 7-10cm (3-4″) apart and 3.5cm (1½”) deep at the base of a support. Plants will climb by twining around almost anything. Try rough poles, lumber, re-bar, or build a strong trellis 2-2.5m (6-8′) tall. Seeds will sprout in 8-16 days, depending on soil conditions. |
| Growing |
Ideal pH: 6.0-6.5. Well drained, warm soil in full sun is best. Use 1 cup of balanced organic fertilizer for every 3m (10′) of row. Too much nitrogen in fertilizer or manure is often the cause of poor pod set and delayed maturity. If beans flower but do not set pods, the cause can be zinc deficiency. Try spraying the plants with kelp based fertilizer. Wet leaves on crowded plants are subject to diseases. Thin plants to increase air circulation and avoid touching the leaves while they are wet. |
