This cultivar is outperforming all the bush beans that I am growing this year. A very nicely formed relatively large pod. Howevr it does not resemble a Kentucky Wonder any better than the old Commodore. It has a semi-flat pod. A very good bush bean. The bush is larger than standard cultivars but no short runners.
