Emerite Filet Pole Bean Seeds: A Culinary Delight

Emerite Filet Pole Bean Seeds are a prized addition to any home garden. With their slender, tender pods and exceptional flavor, these beans are a favorite among gardeners and cooks alike.

Characteristics

Emerite Filet Pole Beans, also known as French Filet Beans or Haricots Verts, are renowned for their distinctive features:

  1. Elongated Pods: These beans are aptly named "filet" or "stringless" because they have a slender, stringless, and elongated pod. The pods typically grow to around 6-7 inches in length, making them easy to harvest and enjoy.

  2. Rich Green Color: The pods of Emerite Filet Pole Beans are a vibrant, rich green color, indicating their freshness and high nutritional value.

  3. Tender Texture: One of their most attractive qualities is their tenderness. These beans are exceptionally tender, even when picked slightly larger, offering a delightful crunch and succulent taste.

  4. Prolific Yield: Emerite Filet Pole Bean plants are known for their generous yield, providing an abundant supply of beans throughout the growing season.

Cultivation Tips

Growing Emerite Filet Pole Beans can be a rewarding experience, and following these cultivation tips can help you achieve a successful harvest:

  1. Location: Choose a sunny spot in your garden with well-draining soil. These beans thrive in full sunlight.

  2. Support Structures: Since they are pole beans, they require vertical support to climb. Use trellises, stakes, or bean poles to provide the necessary support for their growth.

  3. Planting: Sow the seeds directly in the garden once the soil has warmed in the spring. Plant them about 1 inch deep and 2-3 inches apart, with rows spaced 18-24 inches apart.

  4. Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water at the base of the plants to avoid wetting the foliage.

  5. Fertilization: Fertilize with a balanced, organic fertilizer at planting and again during the growing season to ensure healthy growth and a bountiful harvest.

  6. Harvesting: Harvest the beans when they are young and slender, typically at around 6-7 inches in length. Regular harvesting encourages continuous production.

  7. Pest and Disease Control: Watch for common bean pests like aphids and bean beetles. Proper spacing and good garden hygiene can help minimize pest and disease problems.

Culinary Uses

Emerite Filet Pole Beans are renowned for their delectable flavor and versatility in the kitchen. Here are some culinary ideas for incorporating these beans into your meals:

  1. Steaming: Steam the whole beans for a few minutes until they are bright green and tender. Season with a pinch of salt and a drizzle of olive oil for a simple and healthy side dish.

  2. Stir-Frying: Add sliced Filet Beans to stir-fries with other vegetables and proteins for a crunchy, flavorful addition.

  3. Salads: Blanch the beans briefly and toss them into salads for a crisp and refreshing texture.

  4. Grilling: Grill whole Filet Beans with a touch of olive oil and your favorite seasonings for a unique and smoky flavor.

  5. Preserving: If you have a surplus of beans, consider pickling or canning them to enjoy their deliciousness throughout the year.

Planting & Care

Planting: In late Spring, once night temperatures stay securely above 55°F, plant seeds in well-worked, fertile soil in full sun. Erect strong stakes, tripod poles or trellis, at planting time to support vines. Plant 1" deep and 4" apart along a trellis; around tripods or stakes, plant 4 - 6 seeds about 4" from each pole, thinning seedlings to 3 best plants per pole.

Growing: Beans are an easy and reliable crop, but don't plant seeds too early; cold conditions prevent good germination. If first sowing comes up unevenly, replant right away; new seedlings will catch up quickly. Birds are attracted to young seedlings; watch carefully and protect with netting if necessary. Avoid harvesting beans in wet conditions.

Harvest & Use: For the best yields, pick beans frequently, at least every 2 or 3 days. Filet beans are meant to be eaten when pods are long and slender, so harvest the tender pods early when they are still pencil-thin. These elegant gourmet beans taste best freshly harvested and the more pods you pick, the more plants will produce. Enjoy quickly steamed just until tender-crisp, then toss with a little sweet butter and a sprinkling of fresh tarragon or dill.

Great beans!

These beans were quick to sprout and we were eating them within five weeks after planting! Very happy with the uniform size and taste of these beans.

Wonderful Green Beans

I purchased 3 packs of these and had about 95% germination. These Emerites (Haricot Vert) are planted with a terrace of 8 foot bamboo poles and netting. They are fast growers, hitting the top in no time and going over the other side. They started producing in 2 months. It has gotten hot now (113) but just picked a basket of beans. These beans are awesome, 5 to 8 inches long, have a wonderful snap and are sweet. I canned 5 pints two days go. These will be my go to pole bean from now on.
