Bean Tiger Eye Bush
A beautiful mustard-coloured bean with dark maroon markings, this kidney-shaped heirloom is as eye-catching as it is delicious. Thin-skinned pods dry quicker than other dry bean varieties, making them a great choice for shorter seasons or early late summer rains. Slightly vining bush plants grow to about 18". Trellising is not required, but light support can help with harvest and prevent damage caused by pods touching the ground.
Direct seed 5cm (2"") deep, 5-8cm (2-3"") apart as soon as soil is warm, in rows 45cm (18"") apart. Thin to 15cm (6"") apart.
Beans usually take 8-16 days to germinate
Takes about 80-90 days to dry
Stop watering when the pods first start to dry. Harvest pods as they dry (or once most are dry) then store in a dry place with good airflow out of direct sunlight to dry completely (should be brittle) for easy shelling/threshing. Whole plants can also be cut and moved under cover to finish drying if necessary.
