The Rio Zape pole bean is an heirloom variety treasured for its unique, rich flavor and beautiful appearance. The beans are medium-sized with a striking deep maroon color, often speckled with black markings. Known for their creamy texture and slightly sweet, earthy taste, Rio Zape beans are perfect for soups, stews, and refried beans. The sturdy bush plants are highly productive, maturing in about 90 days.
These beans earned more space. Fantastic production with very little maintenance. Zone 6b
These took a LONG time to mature but were worth the wait! They took over everything growing around them but I'm not complaining. I will be growing twice as much as last yr because they were so delicious and pretty too. Grown in N. MS zone 8a
These grew beautifully for me in Michigan, zone 5A. They made THE BEST refried beans my family has ever had. We look forward to growing much more next year.
I ordered these a little late in the season, but whimsically sowed about a dozen anyway, hoping for a late frost. I got lucky! These beans are absolutely gorgeous, and I was able to harvest about a cup of shelled beans per 8-10 plants. I saved most of my seed packages for next season, but am not worried about germination rates--they keep for quite a while if stored properly (dry, cool, etc...).
Also, this is a bush bean. The website may say pole, but the packaging and my experience say they are definitely a bush--roughly 2' high, and I didn't even give them the chance they deserve by planting them on time. These are seriously great, give them a try!
Fantastic germination rate! Growing like weeds!

As described. Good germination.
We have nice fertile soil in our greenhouse and able to control those pesty little flea beetles that can decimate eggplants foliage. I've been keeping them under control with DE and my eggplants are massive in size, about 3-4 feet tall with 1 foot lower leaves.
The eggplants fruit are developing nicely, nearly doubling in size daily. There are plenty of blossoms too. We're expecting that we won't need to grow more for a few years, we're planning on freeze drying most if them.
I purchased several packs of seeds from MiGardener during the semi annual sale, and they did not disappoint! Nearly 100 percent germination rate on all seeds I've planted. The only thing I haven't been able to germinate is lemon grass, which I'm learning may 1 take a very long time to germinate in general and 2 need bottom heat to help them sprout. Even without being on sale 2 bucks a seed pack for the amount they give (very generous compared to other companies, I might add) is a crazy good deal. If you have been on the fence, I encourage you to give MiGardener seeds a try! Thank you Luke and team, and Happy Gardening to all!
I'm not a seasoned gardener, so I don't necessarily know what's normal or not, but out of all the seeds I planted (got about a dozen different herbs and greens from MIgardener), the fenugreek was the quickest to sprout, had the highest germination rate, and the largest sprouting leaves. I'm pretty excited to watch them grow into beautiful plants.
Gardening for over 40 years. The Trifecta very impressed has all the elements I want in a fertilizer. Next year I will buy the largest amount.
