AnnualGood Mother Stallard pole bean is a cherished heirloom variety renowned for its rich, nutty flavor and striking appearance. The beans are mottled with beautiful maroon and white patterns. These vigorous climbing plants reach maturity in about 85-95 days, producing high yields of tender, flavorful beans. Ideal for soups, stews, and salads, Good Mother Stallard beans maintain their shape and texture well during cooking.
Pretty colors
Beautiful beans arrived early- plan to plant in spring
Ordered more packets for summer!
Everything arrived in great condition, and I can't wait to plant them.
I'm growing in Ohio Zone 6B. Last year, I paired two pole bean varieties on a zig-zagging bamboo terrace: Cherokee and Good Mother Stallard. These varieties pair well because the pods look very different (with long-thin pods that dry to red/purple on the Cherokee and flatter pods that dry to yellow/brown for Good Mother Stallard), so it's easy to tell which bean you are harvesting. The Good Mother Stallard beans were the later of the two to begin producing pods, with larger beans but fewer per pod (usually three to five). The dried beans are gorgeous, mottled burgundy and white, and they hold their shape well during cooking. They are also quite tasty!
My only complaint is that I was not prepared for how well and fast all of the seeds would grow soI had to pot up earlier than expected! I am very happy with all of the seeds I have purchased from here!
I think I got near perfect germination on these. Cauliflower has always been challenging for me to time it out and know when to harvest. I've been learning that crops that have purple or reds in them (looking at my red lettuce varieties and purple sprouting broccoli) seem to bolt less quickly than their green counterparts in heat.
I have been buying seeds from you for the last 3 years. They germinate very well, and have produced the best gardens I have ever had. I just got my order for this year started in my greenhouse. For the first time I opened a packet of All Seasons Cabbage and there were no seeds in it. the rest of the order is doing great. The price of the seeds also good.

This is my first year growing straw flower. The germination rate is fantastic and you get so many seeds. Can't wait till they can moved outdoors and bloom in my purple flower bed.
Everything but the royal paste sprouted. Sometimes that happens. Will place another order for fall planting.
