Description

The classic "Wax Beans" are super popular for good reason: They're easy to grow, with shiny, long, round pods that are stringless, tender and delicious. Excellent frozen, canned or fresh in salads, soups and main dishes. The blooming vines and the bright yellow beans make a big show in the garden, too.

When and Where to Plant: Select sunny location and plant when all danger of frost is past and the soil has warmed. For best results, loosen soil with spade or fork, fertilize with vegetable food and smooth with rake. Firm soil over seed and keep moist. Plant bush types every 3 weeks.
Care:
Harvesting: Pick regularly when pods are 4-6"/10-15 cm., before sides bulge.
