“You get big crops of sweet and always stringless pods.

“Kentucky Blue is an All-America Selections winner that combines the excellence of the all-time greatest pole beans: Kentucky Wonder and Blue Lake. You get big crops of sweet, straight, stringless pods 7″ long. A heavy yielder for many weeks. Pole beans yield much longer than bush beans, right up to frost. Plant 4-6″ apart at the base of poles, a trellis, a fence or our Bean Tower. A 2 oz. seed pack will plant a row of about 20 ft. or 10-16 poles.” Burpee
