Organic Bean Jade (P) Pkt

60 days. One of the best-tasting beans we've ever grown in our trials! These upright plants harvest easily, bearing plenty of long, round, straight pods of rich green. The 6- to 7-inch pods are stringless and set seeds slowly, which extends the harvest time nicely. Plants are resistant to many diseases, including Common Bean Mosaic, Curly Top Virus, and Rust.

Easy and trouble-free, even for the new gardener, this snap 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).
