Bush Bean Trio
Seed a new crop every 7 to 14 days for up to 60 days before the last frost. Plant in the spring after last average frost date. This packet plants 2-10 foot rows. In very hot summer areas, beans should be planted in mid-March. The snap bean or bush bean is eaten pod and all, and is one of those vegetables like tomatoes that tastes significantly better when grown at home rather than bought at the grocery store. They create a colorful combination for creative cooking. This trio of Blue Lake 274, Cherokee Wax, and Purple Queen bush beans is unsurpassed for flavor, productivity, reliability and hardiness. The Bush Bean Trio, 'Phaseolus vulgaris', is a three-bean "salad" in a packet. For all areas, bush beans can be planted in succession to produce beans all season. They have a wonderful fresh flavor and are ideal for canning or freezing. The soil should be well drained and high in organic matter. ... get more information
