Neckargold is a climbing French bean with bright golden-yellow pods that are straight, round and very fleshy. Plants reach about 190cm, ideal for wigwams, fences or any sturdy support. The yellow colour makes the pods easy to spot among the leaves.

Stringless and tender when picked young. Beautiful on the plate alongside green beans for a two-tone effect. Productive and reliable in Irish growing conditions.
