Dwarf Bean Opera is an early maturing Kenyan-type bean that produces heavy crops of slim dark green 10-12cm stringless pods over a long season. Resistant to Halo Blight Mosaic Virus and Anthracnose this is the perfect choice for organic gardeners as Opera has no problems with Botrytis.

Plant Type: vegetable
Harvest: Regularly while the pods are still young for the best crops.
Ideal for: Children

Sowing: Sow seeds individually in 7.5cm (3in) pots at 18-20C (64-68F) from mid April for transplanting outdoors after all risk of frost. Alternatively sow outdoors from late April to late July after all risk of frost has passed. Bean seeds can be sensitive to low soil temperatures so delay sowing until the soil has warmed up.

Growing: Hoe regularly and keep well watered and mulched in dry periods.
