Description

Haricot grimpant français (Phaseolus vulgaris) Un excellent haricot frais qui remonte au début des années 1800. Extrêmement délicieux lorsqu'il est cueilli jeune et tendre. Les plantes ressemblent à des vignes, ressemblant à de petites pousses de lilas accompagnées de fleurs. Sucré et savoureux hors de la vigne.
