Jacob's Cattle bean, also known as Trout or Appaloosa bean, is a striking heirloom variety with a distinctive maroon and white mottled pattern. This bush bean matures in about 90-100 days and is prized for its hearty, rich flavor and creamy texture. Ideal for soups, stews, and baked beans, it retains its shape well during cooking. Jacob's Cattle beans thrive in well-drained soil and full sun, with plants reaching about 18-24 inches in height. These beans are not only delicious but also nutritious, high in protein, fiber, and essential minerals, making them a valuable addition to any garden.
This is one of my most favorite beans to cook with. So versatile, and relatively easy to grow! Can't wait to get started!
I bought them for next year. Always happy with the seeds from migardener!
I've never grown these before so excited to try them next season.
Bought some more beans for my garden. These are great beans for direct sowing.
This bean variety was very prolific. I love to grow different dry bean varieties for mixed bean soups. This for sure was a tasty one and it holds up well to long cooking. Of course it's also very beautiful.
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.
