Organic Bean, Bush Blue Lake (1/2 lb)
Stringless Pod Great for Freezing or Canning
Bean - Blue Lake Bush - Phaseolus vulgaris
Tender Annual Bush. This is an excellent freezing and canning snap bean. The plant bears 5" long oval pods. Blue Lake is a heavy yielder, holds its condition well, and remains stringless and tender over a long period of time. Great flavor.
Did You Know? Snap beans are ready to pick when the pod breaks cleanly in half.
Soil & Water: Legumes like well-drained soil rich in organic matter and a moderate amount of nutrients. Water lightly at planting, moderately at flowering, and heavily throughout harvest time. Avoid overhead watering which can promote disease.
Planting & Growing: Start indoors in short-season climates, or seed directly once soils have reached at least 65°F, preferably after the last frost. Make small, successive plantings every 10 days for a continuous harvest.
Harvesting & Storage: Bush beans will produce all of their fruit over a few weeks' time. For best flavor, harvest the pods when they reach 1/2" in diameter regardless of their length.
