Why Choose Bean Bush Royalty Purple?

• Heirloom Seed: Passed down through generations for at least 75 years for reliable harvests and authentic flavor.
• Non-GMO Seeds: Plants whose DNA structure has not been altered in ways that do not occur naturally through traditional breeding methods.
• Stunning Purple Color: Vibrant purple pods, foliage, and flowers make this one of the most visually striking beans in any garden.
• Color-Change Magic: Purple pods turn green when cooked — a fun, kid-friendly variety that’s as educational as it is delicious.
• Cool Soil Germination: Germinates reliably in cooler, wet soil conditions where other bean varieties struggle — great for early season planting.
• Stringless 5″ Pods: Tender, stringless pods at 55 days — no prep hassle, exceptional fresh-eating quality.

Planting Tips for Success

• When to Plant: Direct sow outdoors after last frost when soil temps reach 50°F or above. Earlier sowing than most bush beans is possible thanks to Royalty’s cool-soil tolerance. In Texas and warm climates, sow again in late summer for a fall harvest.
• Sunlight: Full sun — at least 6–8 hours per day for best growth and pod production.
• Soil: Well-drained, moderately fertile soil with a pH of 6.0–6.8. Royalty is notably tolerant of cooler, wetter soils at germination.
• Planting Depth: Sow seeds 1 inch deep, 2–3 inches apart.
• Spacing: Thin to 4–6 inches apart in rows 18–24 inches apart.
• Watering: Keep soil consistently moist; avoid overhead watering once flowers appear to prevent pod issues.
• Support: No staking needed — compact bush plants are self-supporting.
• Fertilizing: Minimal fertilization needed — beans fix atmospheric nitrogen. A light balanced fertilizer at planting is sufficient.
• Succession Planting: Sow every 2–3 weeks for a continuous harvest through the season.
• Harvesting: Ready in 55 days. Pick pods when 5 inches long and still deep purple for best flavor. Harvest frequently to encourage continued production.
