Some of our more prolific producers this year have been our bush string beans. We planted three each of  “Provider Snap Bush” and “Royal Burgundy Bush” beans and we have had about three harvests since they have matured, which was a surprise because I thought we would get one round of beans and that would be it. The plants lie pretty low, so they get knocked over in the rain, but that doesn’t seem to bother them…the funny thing is that when the purple beans are cooked, they turn green!
