Rattlesnake Pole Bean Seeds from Survival Garden Seeds offer a vigorous, high-yielding heirloom variety with deep cultural roots in Indigenous American agriculture. Also known as Preacher Beans, this historic pole bean was grown by Hopi, Iroquois, and Cherokee communities and remains a cherished staple today. The tall 8–10 foot vines produce abundant pods streaked with purple, delivering both beauty and productivity to the garden. Whether enjoyed fresh as snap beans or dried for long-term storage, Rattlesnake beans offer dependable harvests and versatile kitchen value.

Heritage Heirloom with Exceptional Resilience:
Rattlesnake Beans are known for their ability to thrive in challenging conditions. The vines grow rapidly and reliably in hot summers, tolerating both high humidity and drought. Their adaptability and productivity have earned them a place in the Cherokee Nation Seed Bank, reflecting their long-standing agricultural importance. With proper vertical support, these vines produce heavy yields throughout the season.

Delicious Fresh or Dried:
As snap beans, Rattlesnake pods offer a sweet, slightly richer flavor than standard green beans. Their striking green pods with purple streaks are tender and tasty when harvested young. If left to mature, the beans inside dry to a pale color and are excellent for soups, stews, and long-term storage. This versatility makes them a valuable addition to home gardens and preparedness plans alike.

How to Grow:
Sow seeds outdoors after the last frost once the soil has warmed. Provide a sturdy trellis, pole, or fence for climbing vines that can reach 8–10 feet. Plant in full sun with well-drained soil and water consistently during early growth and pod development. Harvest young pods for snap use or leave pods to mature fully on the vine for dried beans. Regular picking of young pods encourages continued production.
