Jacob's Cattle Bean is a brightly patterned bean that is shiny white with splashes of deep maroon- the pattern resembles spotted Hereford cattle, dating back to the 1700’s.
Full-flavored, it has a rich aroma during cooking and holds its shape. Stands up well to plenty of seasoning.

Planting Instructions
Outdoor Sowing Recommended.
Beans need well-drained soil and at least 6 - 8 hours of full sun. When all danger of frost is past, and the ground is thoroughly warm, plant beans 1.5" deep, every 3 - 4", firming soil over seeds. Water weekly in dry weather.
Planting every 3 weeks until midsummer assures a continuous supply of beans.
