They may be the most prolific bean in the whole garden - and a small bush form at that! You can plant them as soon as soil temperatures reach 65 F and all chance of frost is past and they will produce beans almost continuously until killed by frost. Last year they were still blooming when nipped by the first frost and kept producing beans on the lower parts of the plant. In Las Cruces you will get some blossom drop in the dry heat of June, but the rest of the season they seem immune to everything, if you keep them evenly watered. If you think you don't like lima beans, give these little guys a try. You might be surprised by their rich yet mild flavor.
