Blue Jay's Bean Show Day #2
I hadn't grown Blue Shaxamaxon in a couple of years and was nearly out of the bean through fairly steady request. My Stanwood, Iowa grower's seed looks like it turned out larger that what I had grown previously. The second bean Bogen turned out really nice this year and very productive. 19.65 ounces (557 grams) from 4 plants of very high quality seed. Actually nicer that the ones I had grown the last time I grew Bogen. In my early days of Seed Savers Exchange I wish I would have kept a record of who sent me the beans that I had received from other SSE members. Bogen is one of the Beans I donated to Seed Savers Exchange. No one else came forth with the bean.
