Our Mamba trial crops have consistently produced double the yield of Cobra, with no reduction in flavour or pod quality. Mamba?s mid-green, stringless pods are larger, more uniform and carried in clusters for easy picking. Growth is more manageable, taking up less space than most other varieties.
Mr. Tall has very long legs! He's so tall that when I look up at him, I can hardly see his face; it's so far away! Mr. Tall is a good friend to have, he can see for miles, which is very helpful for worms.
