Blue Lake, Pole Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris)
Blue Lake Pole Bean sets pods from the base to the top of the vine-so you will have plenty for eating fresh and processing. Produces heavy yields of straight, smooth six inches pods that are crisp and stringless at all stages, never limp. They cook up tender, with full-bodied Blue Lake flavor. Like other pole beans, they require some type of support or trellis. For a tender texture, harvest beans when they are young and succulent.
