Pods are nearly round, stringless, and tender, making them ideal for fresh eating. ‘Black Valentine’ is a high yielding variety with a harvest window of approximately 65 to 70 days. Also known as dwarf, French, or snap bean, it belongs to one of the most widely grown vegetable groups in the world. Originally from South and Central America, beans were cultivated as early as 500 B.C. and introduced to France by 1535. Bush beans are rich in vitamins A, B, and C and are valued for their productivity and ease of growing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"694\"\u003eApproximately 15 seeds per packet\u003cbr data-start=\"747\" data-end=\"750\"\u003eSeed count: approximately 2 to 4 seeds per gram\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"799\" data-end=\"962\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"799\" data-end=\"828\"\u003eWhen to Plant (Australia)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"828\" data-end=\"831\"\u003eTropics: March to August\u003cbr data-start=\"855\" data-end=\"858\"\u003eSubtropics: September to March\u003cbr data-start=\"888\" data-end=\"891\"\u003eMild climates: October to March\u003cbr data-start=\"922\" data-end=\"925\"\u003eCold climates: November to February\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"964\" data-end=\"1403\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"964\" data-end=\"985\"\u003ePlanting \/ Sowing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"985\" data-end=\"988\"\u003eSow seed directly into well drained soil in a warm, sunny position after the risk of frost has passed. Sow seed 3 to 5 cm deep and space plants 20 to 25 cm apart, with rows 45 to 60 cm apart. Use successive sowings while conditions remain frost free to extend the harvest period. Bush beans grow well in most soils provided drainage is good and perform best in near neutral soil conditions. Avoid waterlogged sites.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"964\" data-end=\"1403\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0736\/4866\/8890\/files\/EdenSeeds_ACO_ACOCertifiedOrganic.jpg?v=1761179582\" alt=\"ACO Certified Organic logo\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"964\" data-end=\"1403\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDue to quarantine restrictions, TAS has an 800g limit per each seed variety and WA has a 10,000 seeds limit per variety.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eden Seeds ","offers":[{"title":"Packet","offer_id":47106452193498,"sku":null,"price":4.4,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0736\/4866\/8890\/files\/IMG-0869.heic?v=1765850377","url":"https:\/\/www.edenseeds.com.au\/products\/bean-bush-black-valentine-organic-seeds","provider":"Eden Seeds ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
