Washington, Pennsylvania, United States
Frost Free Season: 163 - 183 days
Soil Texture: Clay
Garden Size: Large - More than 1,600 square feet (40' x 40')
Sun Exposure: 6 to 8 hours per day

Can't rate taste because germination was terrible (and I read the directions-soil was warm). Planted King of the Garden limas a week later with perfect germination, so temp wasn't a factor. The seed was irregular and probably sterile!
