Jackson Wonder Beans can be used as a stringless green bean, or be allowed to grow longer for use as a drying bean.
The plant grows 15 to 30 inches (40 to 75 cm) tall, and has 3 to 5 beans per pod.
When dried, Jackson Wonder Beans are buffed-coloured with purplish mottling on them, and cook up creamy.
