Piekny Jas & sunset runner will look into .
Snaps are overwhelming when deciding which ones. L. Pole , Green Savage etc all will make the grade…just a tricky decision… maybe time to bite the bullet and just try 3or4 rows of each. Mmm- Looking up Fasold. Oh nice French climbing long and thin. Those look tasty. I remember discussions on that one.
Thank you again for you advice and your experience of course adds trust and confidence in decisions .
The #1 thing when it comes to growing snap beans, and I'm probably biased because I love beans so much, is that there is so much out there. So much more variety and diversity than what most realize. Experiment! Especially if you haven't tried the roma/romano varieties, which are not a different species from pencil pod types, but they are still very different as a vegetable from them. I've encountered a few people who were quite thrilled with how good romano snap beans are. A texture sort of like meaty mushrooms. Fortex, that's a really good one too.
