Bush Blue Lake
- Pod size: 6 inches
- Matures: 60 days
- Plant Size: 1 foot wide, 2 feet tall
This stringless snap bean matures early and offers superior flavor, color, texture and ease of picking. A bush variety, it does not need staking. The beans are long and straight. Excellent steamed or used in salads. Originally developed as a canning bean, but it soon grew to be a fresh favorite, too. Its predecessor, Blue Lake pole bean, is an heirloom that has been around since the early 1900s. Bush Blue Lake was developed from Blue Lake pole bean in 1961. Very productive. Produces most of its harvest within a few weeks, leaving time for a second crop or a vacation! Set transplants 8 inches apart.

More info needed. Things like how tall does the plants grow (so you know how to stake them). If straped for space, could you plant them in large containers? This is my first time growing them and I'm trying it in a 2' diameter container. (Posted on 5/7/12)Taste Yield
