I liked Fortex also.
I also grew Cosse Violetto - such fun to have the purple ones, shame they turn green when cooked.

The Purple King, too turned green. it is more a flat pod, or semi-round. A nice bean! What I like about Fortex is even if fairly big, they would still come out tender and stringless. Thanks for the additional variety worth trying. Some I talked to had no luck with Fortex, but man they were long, tender, productive, very nice for me.
I want to try the Italian sampler pole beans from Franchi

I'm pretty happy with the seeds from them so far.
