The Caviar of Green Beans - Tres Magnifique!
French Beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) or as the French call them, "haricots verts" (literally "green beans")! These are NOT your grandmother's ordinary green beans - French beans are the slender, elegant, gourmet beauties that command premium prices at farmers markets and five-star restaurants. What makes them so special? These ultra-tender filet beans are harvested young when they're pencil-thin (4-7 inches long), delivering an incredibly delicate texture and refined, sweet flavor that's simply incomparable to standard green beans. The classic varieties produce beautiful dark green, ultra-slim pods that are virtually stringless, with a velvety tender skin you can practically eat raw! Whether you choose compact 12-24 inch bush types that mature all at once (perfect for canning and freezing marathons!) or vigorous 6-8 foot pole varieties that climb trellises and produce continuously all summer, French beans reward with heavy yields of gourmet-quality pods in just 50-65 days. Best of all, they're incredibly easy to grow - just plant after frost, keep watered, and harvest frequently for weeks of the most tender, flavorful beans you've ever tasted!

Types of Seeds We Offer
Open-Pollinated & Heirloom Seeds
Our open-pollinated (OP) seeds naturally reproduce through wind, insects, water, or self-pollination. When grown in isolation, they produce true-to-type plants year after year.
Among our OP seeds are treasured heirloom varieties — old favorites that have been carefully passed down for generations. While OP plants can be less uniform than hybrids, we run our Open-Pollinated Project to select the most reliable, flavorful, and beautiful strains.
Non-GMO: What It Means and Why It Matters
A GMO (Genetically Modified Organism) is created when scientists alter a plant’s DNA in a lab — often by inserting genes from completely unrelated species — to achieve certain traits, like pest resistance or herbicide tolerance. This is a far cry from natural plant breeding.
At Shido, we believe gardening should stay as close to nature as possible. All our seeds — whether hybrid, heirloom, organic, or open-pollinated — are Non-GMO. They’re bred using traditional methods that respect natural biodiversity, giving you safe, wholesome seeds that grow into plants just as nature intended.
When you plant Shido Non-GMO seeds, you’re choosing purity, sustainability, and peace of mind — along with a garden full of flavor, color, and beauty.
Vacuum-Sealed for Freshness — Good for 10 Years
Every Shido seed packet is vacuum-sealed to lock in freshness and protect your seeds from moisture, air, and pests. This careful packaging not only preserves their quality but also extends their shelf life dramatically. Stored properly in a cool, dry place, our seeds remain viable for up to 10 years — so you can plant them now, next season, or even years down the road. Whether you’re planning a garden this spring or building a long-term seed stash, Shido seeds are ready when you are.
