Growing Information

Growing Slenderette Bush Bean

‘Slenderette’ is an early, high-yielding bush bean prized for its long, slender pods, tender texture, and classic ‘Blue Lake’ flavor. Glossy dark green pods grow to about 5 inches long and stay free of strings and tough fibers when harvested young, making this variety an excellent choice for consistent eating quality.

Sow ‘Slenderette’ 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 20 inches tall and grow in a compact bush habit, so no trellising is required.

Ready to harvest in about 53 days, begin picking the pods while they are still young, slender, and tender. Harvest regularly to encourage continued production and maintain the best texture and flavor.

Tender, flavorful, and dependable, ‘Slenderette’ is excellent for fresh eating, cooking, canning, and freezing.

Best Ever Green Bean

I've been planting this bean for several years and won't consider anything else. These are better than the French fillet beans I used to get in Europe! Wonderful fresh or steamed. I pick them at about 1/4" diameter because I like my veggies tender. However, they're still great when they reach standard bean size. These plants are prolific producers and produce right up until frost. In fact, after the first light frost, they're still producing beans on the inside of the plant where the frost didn't reach!
