DWARF FRENCH BEANS COMING INTO FLOWER

Dwarf French Beans (SPRITE) coming into flower.

They look healthy plants with plenty of flower buds,

this variety is a heavy cropper and the more you pick

many more are produced.

Dwarf French Bean 'Sprite' is a lovely, 

elegant variety bred in continental Europe, 

producing exquisite smooth stringless pencil thin pods 

on bushy, compact plants which 

need no support through the season.
