Burpee Stringless Green, Bush Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris)
This burpee variety of green bean is completely stringless and produces a week earlier than many other types of green beans. It can be grown in zones three through twelve, and is tolerant of heat and dry climates. It is also resistant to mosaic powdery mildew, and grows in a bush style, so no supports are needed. Burpee beans will do best in rich, well-drained soil. Good air circulation around bush bean plants is essential, especially for late shelling or dry type beans.
