Green Beans | Seeds

Days to Maturity: 55 for direct-sowing

Delicious crops season after season! This widely-adapted, disease-resistant French bean is simply scrumptious, delivering heavy yields in a wide range of climates. Give it a try this season.

This vigorous bush bean sets 5- to 6-inch-long pods of dark green. Reaching up to ? inch in diameter, they are simply packed with sweet, succulent bean goodness. Seed development is slow, providing a long harvest window. They arise very, very heavily on plants that stand up beautifully.

Beans are among Nature's easiest and most beneficial home garden crops. Direct-sow the seeds after all danger of frost is past in the spring garden. After you harvest the beans, plow under the entire plant, so that it will enrich the soil for next year's garden.
