The Snake Bean Red Dragon, produces beans up to 70cm long! Now you know where the term “snake bean” comes from!

Imagine growing beans as long as your arm! Amaze your friends and family with crazy-cool bean variety.

The plant produces dark green, slender pods with a small red/brown tip and red coloured seed. Highly productive, growing into a 2-3 meter plant that will need to be trellised.

The harvest period covers about four weeks, and even when the beans are a little old, they’re still tender and fleshy. There will be less damage to plant if beans are cut off.

They suit a wide range of climates, are good in greenhouses and are bean-fly resistant.

Snake beans are very nutritious & have a slightly sweet flavour & crunchy texture. They can be eaten raw or cooked.

Good steamed, stir-fried, in curries and in salads and totally stringless.
