Vegetable bean variety Malachite is an early-maturing, high-yielding variety bred in 2013 by breeders Khovrin A. N., Maksimov S. V., and Klymenko N. N. From germination to technical maturity takes about 55 days, allowing for harvest in a short time. Plants have a compact bush height of about 35 cm, but during growth may produce long vines reaching up to one meter, ensuring prolonged fruiting and a large number of pods. Beans are green, up to 10 cm long, without a parchment layer, making them especially convenient for fresh consumption.
The Malachite variety is distinguished by its resistance to diseases and pests, as well as its low-maintenance nature, making it suitable for cultivation in various regions. The vegetative period is about 55 days, allowing the bean to be used both for direct consumption and for processing. Beans are fleshy, fiberless, ensuring a pleasant taste and ease of preparation. Pods are wide and flat, characteristic of bush asparagus bean, and can be used for preparing vegetable side dishes, canning, and freezing.
The yield of the variety reaches 1.5 kg per square meter, making it attractive to gardeners and farmers. Thanks to the slow seed development, the bean retains its taste qualities for a long time, allowing enjoyment of fresh vegetables throughout the season. The Malachite variety combines high productivity, resistance, and versatility, making it an excellent choice for cultivation both in personal plots and for commercial purposes.
