    Hildora is a yellow bush bean. I decided to plant some bush beans for a fall harvest and wanted something other than the common green beans. I found the seeds at GourmetSeed.com and decided on Hildora because of the description of a yellow stringless filet bean. I can't wait to try the beans for myself.
