Particularly high-yielding wax bean with gourmet qualities. It bears an enormous number of 14 - 15 cm long, slender, straight, fully round, crisp and yet tender pods with a particularly good aroma. 'Voletta' is highly tolerant to all important bean diseases such as burnt spot, virus and oil spot. Optimal improvement for `Wax Best of All'. Growth height 120 cm.

Non hybrid

Not frost resistant

Growing tips

The bush bean is a cold-sensitive legume. As bush beans belong to the legume family, they can form a symbiotic relationship with nitrogen-fixing bacteria and are therefore a good pre-crop for nutrient-requiring crops. Direct sowing in clumps or rows is possible until mid-July. Stability is increased by sowing in clumps and by regularly hoeing around the plants. During the main harvest period, you can harvest the ripe pods every three days. If you cover the seedlings with fleece or foil, early sowing is possible, even if the temperatures are still low. Nitrogen fertilization is not necessary as the nodule bacteria fix nitrogen on the roots.
