Description and growing instructions from Hudson Valley Seeds.
Deliciously plump with excellent disease resistance.
Bred by Washington State University, Silver Cloud is an improved white kidney bean with high yields and greater disease resistance. Wonderful and meaty as a dry or shell bean, Cannellini is a must for many beloved Italian soups and dishes. Bush Habit.
GROWING INSTRUCTIONS.
Direct sow outdoors as soon as the threat of frost has passed. Sow seeds 1 inch apart and thin to 6-8 inch spacing. Protect with row cover from bean beetles if necessary. For best results, allow the beans to dry on the plant. Harvest beans when dry prior to the first fall frost. If weather does not permit this, pull the plants up at the last possible moment and hang to dry, then thresh the plants to remove the beans. Store in a cool, dry dark place.
