Contender Bush Bean Vegetable Garden Seeds. Phaseolus vulgaris. Also known as Buff Valentine, this Annual requires full sun and well-drained soil. Good air circulation around bush bean plants is essential, especially for late shelling or dry type beans, as they are very susceptible to fungal diseases which prevail later in the season. Bush beans are light feeders; compost or well-rotted manures worked into the soil at the time of planting is sufficient. Harvest once the bush beans are smooth, firm and crisp. Keep bush beans constantly picked to ensure a fresh supply. Height - 12 to 20 inches. Spacing - 2 to 3 inches. Spread - 18 to 30 inches. Depth - 1 1/2 inches. Cooks up tender; cans and freezes with no loss of quality. Excellent for short growing, cool seasons. This productive stringless variety is good for canning, freezing or eating raw directly from the garden and has a very distinctive flavor. Resistant to BV, heat, and mildew. Approx. 90 seeds/oz.
