Bush Bean Trio

In very hot summer areas, beans should be planted in mid-March. For all areas, bush beans can be planted in succession to produce beans all season. The Bush Bean Trio, 'Phaseolus vulgaris', is a three-bean "salad" in a packet. Plant in the spring after last average frost date. Seed a new crop every 7 to 14 days for up to 60 days before the last frost. The soil should be well drained and high in organic matter. They have a wonderful fresh flavor and are ideal for canning or freezing. 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 packet plants 2-10 foot rows. This trio of Blue Lake 274, Cherokee Wax, and Purple Queen bush beans is unsurpassed for flavor, productivity, reliability and hardiness. ... additional info
