Agree about Trionfo Violetto. I grew 8 varieties last year, planted all on the same day, and Trionfo Violetto was the first to pop up, first to climb, first to flower, and yielded delicious beans all the way to a killing frost. Color me impressed. I purchased seed from Fruition Seeds.
I will probably grow only 3-4 varieties this year and Trionfo Violetto will be "the" purple bean. I also loved Crochet de Savoie which I purchased from Secret Seed Cartel and I will grow that again this year, but I found it to be comparatively a very late (though very heavily producing) bean.
