Hello! Yes, I planted green Slenderette beans from Seeds from Italy, and also zucchini squash. Both have come up beautifully and are producing a wonderful harvest. As with any seed, you always need to remember to water them in and in the days they are germinating in order for them to grow. Mother Nature took over and rained an abundance on my plants! The beans and zucchini are some of the best I've ever planted, and I will be purchasing more seeds from Seeds from Italy in the future. Thanks for asking!
I grew the Slenderette beans next to Jade and the Slenderette were way more productive, easier to pick, much more even and sweet and tender at pretty much any picking size. They are a bit smaller, but much better flavored. I usually just pick for two weeks on bush beans and then give up. The Slenderettes actually put on a later set of beans which surprised me. It wasn't nearly as heavy as the first set but my farming partner picked them for his customers and loved them.
