The slim, purple pods of this Italian favorite are a delicacy with sweet and nutty bean flavor that will have you saying, delizioso! Trionfo violetto literally means purple triumph, and you will agree once you've tried it. A gardening friend introduced this variety to us, and we loved its thin, crisp, and flavorful purple pods that reminded us of a gourmet French filet bean. In the garden, the highly ornamental 6'-8' tall vines have abundant lavender flowers that bloom against lush green leaves with purple veins and purple stems. Like other purple beans, the 7-10 long pods seem to magically turn green when cooked but remain tender and flavorful. A very productive variety, you will be harvesting beans until late summer
