GROWING INSTRUCTIONS
START SEEDS OUTDOORS
In spring, once weather is warm and settled and night temperatures stay above 55°F (13°C), plant seeds in well-worked, fertile soil in full sun. Poke seeds in 1 inch deep and 4 inches apart in rows 1 1/2 to 2 feet apart. Make successive sowings several weeks apart until the end of June to provide long continued harvests.
GROWING NOTES
Tender, crispy garden beans are an easy reliable crop to grow, but don’t plant seeds too early as cold conditions prevent good germination. If first sowing comes up unevenly, replant right away; new seedlings will catch up quickly. Birds are often attracted to young bean seedlings, so watch carefully and protect with netting or floating row covers if necessary. Avoid cultivating plants or picking pods when plants are wet.
HARVEST AND USE
Pick these fine flavored French gourmet beans more often than other bean varieties; at least every other day. They should be full size, but still very slender and no thicker than a pencil. The more you pick, the more plants will produce. Steam or sauté them quickly, just until tender-crisp and serve simply to fully enjoy their tempting flavor.
100% germination and heavy production. On our fourth harvest and so happy to share the bounty with neighbors. So slender and tender with lots of flesh and little bean. My preference.!
Wow. These beans are absolutely DELICIOUS!!! They are great fresh, steamed, sautéed etc.
I have a “French style” green bean slicer and made a huge pot with these green beans and they were all gone!! Will definitely be buying more! My husband is picky with his green beans, but said these are waaaaay better than the half runners we grow! Excellent germination and beautiful looking produce!
Quick delivery and all products present.
The Rolande beans Ihad a 60 planted after Mother's Day, had about 70% germination rate. Last year it was 100%, so this was a bit disappointing. I had a great crop in 2025 and froze quite a few quarts.
Rola de is my favorite green bean to grow and eat.
I have been growing them for years.

Every seed has germinated!
We had this brand last season and the beans are tender and delicious!
Writing from Meridian ID...our beans are all up (two plantings), looking great and can hardly wait until we have beans ready to harvest! I will keep you posted!
