73 days [Heirloom from the J. C. Metze family of Newberry, SC, offered by Parks Seed in the 1960s.] Rattlesnake type - beans are a lovely olive green speckled with purple. Stringless pods are tasty at any stage, even when large and rather overgrown. The seeds remain fairly small inside the pods for a long period of time, and it is the "meat" of the bean that thickens, giving you a real mouthful. Small beans are excellent and delicate eaten raw, and the old thicker beans make a great meat substitute in vegetarian meals. Pkt Note: listed in our 2009 catalog as "Zelma Zesta"; however, the historical name for this variety is more properly "Selma Zesta," so next year's catalog will feature it with that spelling.
