Bean, Bush - Landreth
The Landreth Bush Bean is a classic green bean—lovely medium color, tender 5"-6" stringless pods, and excellent flavor. It’s also an heirloom that has been growing in gardens since the late 1800s. A reliable and heavy producer, this bean is more heat tolerant than other varieties. Tends to grow tall and wide, so give it a little more garden space.
