50 ROMA ITALIAN GREEN BEAN Phaseolus Vulgaris Vegetable Seeds COLOR: Green Pods with White Beans HARVEST: 59 Days PLANT HEIGHT: 14 - 18" . . . PLANT SPACING: 24 - 30" LIGHT REQUIREMENTS: Sun . . . SOIL / WATER: Average Roma is a bush bean, and the pods can be harvested early for snap beans. The bean typically measure 5-7 inches long and are wide and flat. These are my absolute favorite bean! If you enjoy them too, I would definitely recommend growing some because at least around here, they are very hard to find in the stores and are much more expensive than any other beans when you can find them. Of course they are the best when the are fresh out of the garden anyway!
