Ask for Blue Lake Pole bean or you can try the old standard Kentucky Wonder
or the new cross between the two called Kentucky Blue. They will grow up
cornstalks nicely though they do better on a fence where they don't compete
for moisture. Many of my neighbors erect elaborate trellises from baler
twine where they grow pole beans and limas. Because the plants are indeterminate
they produce all summer, you don't need to stage them like with bush beans...

Have heard there are beans that are almost exactly like Blue Lakes, but are usually planted with corn so the beans climb the corn stalks making picking much easier. My back and I will be very grateful to learn the name of this bean. Thanks Mark (West Texas Zone 7b) |
