Phaseolus vulgaris

Days to Maturity: 50

Bush green bean. Providers are a time-tested mainstay of many farmers. An heirloom bush bean that boasts prolific and early production, stringless pods and high disease resistance. Great for green beans, freezing and canning. Straight, round pods. Performs better than most beans in cooler soil.

Planting Instructions: Sow Provider Bean seeds directly in the ground 2" deep, 4-5" apart in spring after all danger of frost has passed. Keep moist until germinated.

Seed Saving Instructions: Allow Provider Bean seed pods to fully dry on the vine. Pick dried pods into a bin and crush to dislodge beans. Store beans in a paper or mesh bag to ensure they dry fully and remain dry.

Approx 30 Provider Bean seeds per packet.
