Growing Information

Growing Roma II Bush Bean

‘Roma II’ is an early-producing bush bean prized for its broad, flat pods, tender texture, and rich Romano-style flavor. Sturdy, upright plants produce heavy yields of bright green, stringless beans that deliver the classic eating quality of an Italian-type pole bean in a compact bush habit.

Sow ‘Roma II’ directly in the garden about 1 inch deep after the danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed. Space plants about 2 inches apart and grow in full sun. Plants typically reach about 18 inches tall and grow in a sturdy bush habit, so no trellising is required.

Ready to harvest in about 56 days, begin picking the 4½- to 5-inch pods while they are still young, tender, and fully developed. Harvest regularly to maintain the best texture and flavor and encourage continued production.

Tender, flavorful, and versatile, ‘Roma II’ is excellent for fresh cooking, freezing, canning, and Italian-style dishes.

Our Favorite Bean

I learned to grow these beans from my Grandfather, 55 yrs ago. Although they were fence beans back then. Still our favorite bush bean and they freeze well. A little difficult to sprout as they like the soil warm, so don't plant too early.

roma II Italian green bean.

I have planted this bean for the last 10 or so years. Our family prefers it to ANY other type of snap bean. I have planted both climbing and bush type. Both taste great. But as I have gotten older, I have settled on the bush type in my raised beds.
