Botanical Interests Ferrari Bush Beans

These dark green, glossy beans are stringless and smooth, they develop early, and are fantastic fresh, steamed, pickled, or frozen to enjoy all winter! Compact plants are great for container gardening. Disease resistant.

Sowing Information:

  • Light: Full sun
  • When to Start Inside: Not recommended; bean seedlings are sensitive to root disturbance.
  • When to Sow Outside: RECOMMENDED. 1 to 2 weeks after your average last frost date, and when soil temperature is at least 65°F, ideally 70°–85°F. Successive Sowings: Every 7 to 14 days up to 80 days before your average first fall frost date. NOTE: In very hot summer areas, skip sowing as high heat approaches; temperatures consistently above 90°F will prevent beans from forming.
  • Seed Depth: 1 inch
  • Seed Spacing: 1 seed every 4 inches
  • Row Spacing: 24 inches
  • Thinning: Not required
  • Days to Germinate: 6–12 days
  • Days to Maturity: 63

Growing Notes:

  • Harvesting: Snap beans are ready to pick when the pod "snaps" or breaks in half cleanly. This is when the seeds have just begun to form and the pods are several inches long (depending on the variety). Hold the stem with one hand, and the pod with the other hand to avoid pulling off branches, which will continue to produce. At the season's end, plants are great compost material if they are disease-free.
  • Type: Snap bean, bush bean
  • Hardiness: Frost-sensitive annual

"They have so much fun stuff to look at even if you're not buying plants! They also have a cool deal where, if you buy the container and the plant, they'll plant it for you. There's clothes, kitchen stuff, kids stuff, books, nick snacks, etc. My mom and I go in just to hang out and look at stuff sometimes, but last time, I got this plant. It went from beautiful to MAMMOTH and beautiful. We named her Victoria."
