Grows equally well in hot, humid summers and extremely cold weather!

Glossy yellow pods are 6 inches long and slender, with succulent dark seeds!
53 days. Versatile and elegant, this French wax variety bears masses of glossy, crisp yellow pods with dark seeds on very vigorous 16- to 24-inch plants. Rich, buttery, and indescribably delicious, Rocdor is a gourmet delicacy, yet grows more easily than most other bush beans!

Widely-adapted to both extreme heat and cold, Rocdor even flourishes in areas of high humidity where other beans may be difficult to grow. You won't believe the quick, carefree growth of this plant, nor its high yields!

Easy and trouble-free, even for the new gardener, this bush bean is widely adapted across the U.S., and is compact in the garden. For best harvest, succession-plant every 3 weeks or so from early spring till late summer (avoiding the worst summer heat in warm areas). Hardier than pole beans, bush snaps can be direct-sown after all danger of frost. Pkt is 2 ounces (about 100 seeds).

A great yellow bean. Large yield, with a wonderful, mild flavor. It does freeze well. Plants are a bit fragile but not a deal breaker - I would stake some of them next year.
