Mark Beans (pole, lima type) non-GMO Heirloom ( 100 Organically Grown vegetable seeds )
This beautiful large bean is usually purple with mottled black but can often be lavender. The Mark Bean, has a long history in Great Britain and other parts of Europe. It can be picked young when both pod and beans can be eaten.
60 days for green, 100+ days for dry beans. Some vines can reach 12’ long, so provide adequate support. Not cold tolerant, beans need warm soil of 65 degrees or better. Regular harvesting of the young pods will ensure a greater yield. Grows best in full sun with well watered soil. Boost yields and germination by adding inoculants.

Make sure to provide adequate support for these vigorous climbers! A strong fence or twine hung on a strong pole will give them plenty of room to grow and good harvest yields.

Heirloom seeds are hardy but always take care with your garden seeds to give them the appropriate amount of moisture – not letting the vegetable seeds dry out prematurely or over watering and possibly having them rot.
