bean - blue lake

Blue Lake Bush Beans are a popular and versatile variety known for their tender, crisp pods and delicious, mild flavor. The young beans can be steamed, sautéed, or added to soups and stews, making them a nutritious addition to any meal. Harvest early for a more delicate taste or leave the beans to mature for a heartier flavor. Blue Lake beans are not only tasty but also an easy-to-grow addition to your garden, producing high yields of beans throughout the growing season. Best planted in well-drained soil with full sun, these bush beans require minimal maintenance and thrive in compact garden spaces. Plant in spring for a summer harvest, or stagger plantings for a continuous supply. Each packet contains 20 seeds.
