Question is what variety is good for the small haricot verte...i have no more seed and must have tossed the empty seed packet. (i usually save those as a reminder that i am out)
I'm thinking it was Renee seeds i picked up somewhere. I like a few plants of those and don't see them often. They have always done well right behind the early peas dying off.
Wondering with all the varieties i see now, what might be a new one to replace the one i've been growing....bush growth full of very tiny beans. I did see a pole variety but did not seen so tiny as a bean.

A tough question to answer, as there are beans labeled Hericot Vert as the variety. Though bush beans and filet beans are not my first choice for snaps, my favorite is Fin De Bagnol, because it consistently outproduces all other bush filet beans in my garden.
