'Jade' is a favorite of gardeners for its consistently long, straight, stringless pods that are tender and sweet with a beautiful, dark green color. Upright, bushy plants hold the pods high, avoiding tip rot. In addition to being very productive, plants are more heat and cold tolerant than other types, are resistant to bean common mosaic viruses 1 and NY15, and tolerant to curly top virus and rust. This packet sows up to 53 feet.

When to sow outside: RECOMMENDED.
1 to 2 weeks after your average last frost date, and when soil temperature is at least 65°F, ideally 70°-85°F. Successive Sowings: Every 7 to 14 days up to 80 days before your average first fall frost date. NOTE: In very hot summer areas, skip sowing as high heat approaches; temperatures consistently above 90°F will prevent beans from forming.

When to start inside: Not recommended; bean seedlings are sensitive to root disturbance.
