I've posted this in two forums because I really need to know your favorite bush filet bean. I like Nickel, but last year they didn't do well. It may have been the weather...but I need to know what works well for you as we certainly enjoy these beans...

Florence is a semi filet bean that always does well for me.

I just checked Florence out at the Park's website...I liked what I read...I'll give these beans a try this year. Thanks!

My absolute favorite for several years has been Maxibell. You can get it from Jung's Seed catalog. High yields of long straight beans with small seeds/beans.

Hi There- I dont know if you are still monitoring this thread, but I have had wonderful results with Masai from pinetree seeds. They grow fast, have a heavy set and ripen all at once, that way you can pull the plant and put something else in there.

Thanks, thecurious. I'll check out Masai.

We just ate some Maxibell beans I froze from last summer...they were delicious. I know I'm going with them again this year....
