2026 Little Easy Bean Network – Plant A Garden, Water Your Soul, Join Our Family

[Blue-Jay]

I grew Dixie Speckled Butterpea 2 years ago in my 6a Michigan garden. I expected it to be a pole, but it grew as a bush bean, and matured in good time in my garden. Also, reasonably productive, and very pretty, to me. It might be worth a try in your setting.

I believe I have Dixie Speckled Butterpea in my freezer. I believe according to what I see on my freezer file that there is probably at leas a quarter pound of this bean in the freezer.

I'm sorry I didn't see this before you made your request for network beans. I grew Dixie Speckled Butterpea 2 years ago in my 6a Michigan garden. I expected it to be a pole, but it grew as a bush bean, and matured in good time in my garden. Also, reasonably productive, and very pretty, to me. It might be worth a try in your setting.

Thanks for the tip @Neen5MI! It's so pretty!
