About Contender Bush Beans
Contender Bush Beans, scientifically known as Phaseolus vulgaris, are a swift-growing and resilient annual variety that can be a game-changer in your survival garden. With a maturity period as short as 55 days, these non-GMO beans are ideal for regions with late final frost dates.
Why Contender Bush Beans Are Ideal for Survival Gardens
Contender Bush Beans mature faster than most other bean varieties, making them a reliable choice for environments with a limited growing season. They are a bush variety, which means they grow upright and don't require additional support. These hardy plants produce bountiful harvests each year during the summer, providing you with a steady supply of fresh beans.
Planting Contender Bush Bean Seeds
Planting Contender Bush Bean seeds is a straightforward process. Sow the seeds directly in well-draining soil after the last frost date in your area. Thanks to their early maturity, you can enjoy your first harvest just fifty days after planting, even in areas with late frosts.
