Kentucky Wonder Pole Bean

Phaseolus vulgaris  ORGANIC Open Pollinated. Heirloom 65 days. 6'. A tasty old favorite, used fresh, green or dry-shelled.    Vigorous 6' vines produce round, thick, meaty beans 9-10" long. The best green beans are picked before the seeds begin bulging in the pod.  The dried beans are an excellent vegetable protein, which can be used as a meal stretcher. First introduced in 1864.  Rust resistant; succeeds everywhere.  Planting Directions:  Direct sow in spring after frost danger has passed and soil temperature is a minimum of 60°, 70° is optimum. Plant 1”to 2” deep, 4-6” apart.  Cultivate soil incorporating compost or a low nitrogen general purpose fertilizer.  Keep soil moist until seed germinates, after that water moderately and regularly until harvest.  Provide trellis for pole beans; bush beans do not need a trellis. After each picking water deep to prolong production.
