Winnebago, Wisconsin, United States
Frost Free Season: 143 - 163 days
Soil Texture: Loam
Garden Size: Large - More than 1,600 square feet (40' x 40')
Sun Exposure: More than 8 hours per day

85 days. Rather weak climber, almost a half-runner; would probably make a good cornfield bean. This is a large bean, 36 per ounce. The pods have 5-6 seeds, and most ripen within a short harvest period. The yield is early & very good for a bean of this size. Only good as dry or shell, the immature pod is inedible
