Grown on a trellis, fence or poles, it makes the most of vertical space in kitchen gardens, raised beds and large containers. Pick the pods young for fresh snap beans, or let them mature for shelling and dry beans. They are delicious steamed, sautéed, in stews and stir-fries, and well suited to canning and freezing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAt a Glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCrop:\u003c\/strong\u003e Warm-season vegetable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeed type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heirloom, open-pollinated, non-GMO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLife cycle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Annual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Climbing (pole bean)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVine height:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6–8 ft (180–240 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePod length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6–8 in (15–20 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDays to harvest:\u003c\/strong\u003e About 65–75 days\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpacing:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4–6 in (10–15 cm); rows 18–24 in apart\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSowing depth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 in (2.5 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate, consistent moisture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContainer friendly:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, in deep containers with a trellis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeeds per packet:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Sow\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSow directly in the garden or in deep containers after the last frost, once the soil has warmed to at least 60°F (16°C); beans rot in cold, wet soil. Plant seeds 1 inch deep and 4–6 inches apart, with rows 18–24 inches apart. Seedlings usually appear in 7–10 days. Set up a sturdy trellis, poles or fence at sowing time so the young vines can start climbing right away. Sow another batch every 2–3 weeks for a longer harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Grow\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrow in full sun in fertile, well-drained soil enriched with compost. Water regularly, especially during flowering and pod formation, keeping the soil moist but not waterlogged. Gently guide the vines onto their support as they grow. Avoid high-nitrogen fertilisers, which encourage leafy growth at the expense of pods. In containers, use pots or grow bags at least 12–16 inches deep with a secure trellis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHarvest\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePick pods when they are tender and about 6–8 inches long, before the seeds inside swell. Harvesting every few days keeps the vines producing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"OrganicSeedsHub","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45506374500535,"sku":"SPA-DEC8-01","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/3335\/6471\/files\/freepik__closeup-young-climbing-bean-vine-with-lush-green-f__29969.jpg?v=1768042969","url":"https:\/\/organicseedshub.com\/products\/missouri-wonder-pole-bean-seeds-phaseolus-vulgaris-heirloom-climbing-bean","provider":"OrganicSeedsHub","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
