From Baker Creek:
“Bush bean. With its incomparable flavor and eye-catching beauty, Dragon Tongue bean is our very favorite green bean. This famous Dutch heirloom, which is also known as Merveille De Piemonte or Dragon Langerie, dates back to at least the 19th century. The tender and superbly delicious 7-inch pods are yellow with amazing purple streaks! It also makes a tasty shelled bean. With its quick growth, superior flavor, and eye appeal, these beans are a must to grow! They are especially beloved in kids’ gardens, and very popular with chefs and gourmets.”
