I grew two different wax beans last year, Dragon Tongue (DT) and Mervaviglia di Venezia (MDV). I liked both. The MDV tolerated the heat better in the summer in Delaware and the beans were a little more tender and sweet. The DT took off when our night-time temperatures finally dropped in September. The MDV didn't like the cold and withered. The DT were very pretty beans. They were both about the same size. I will grow them both again just so I will have a longer season to harvest. I like to sauté them lightly for a quick brunch with eggs, sometimes tossing in some other veggies (peppers, onions, tomatoes, mushrooms).
