This popular yellow bean produces abundant yields of round, stringless pods on bush-type plants. Pods are about 6 inches long, bright golden yellow, slightly curved and slender.

SOWING…Plant seed outdoors in late spring after the ground has warmed. Do not rush planting of beans as a few cold, wet days at planting time may rot seed. Plant seeds 1 ½ inches apart in rows 2 ½ to 3 feet apart. Cover seeds with 1 ½ inches of soil, well pressed down.

THINNING…When plants are 2 to 3 inches tall, thin to 3 inches apart.

GERMINATION…Germinates in 6 to 10 days depending on soil and temperature conditions.

REMARKS…For best crop, keep free of weeds. Do not hoe when wet. For highest quality and yield, pick pods when young, about 3 to 4 inches long. For continuous crop, make successive plantings every 2 to 3 weeks until mid-summer.
