;h Bean 



CiiUiire: The culture of wax podded bush beans is the same as for the green-podded varieties. Tliere 

 are many marlcets where wax beans are great favorites and our list of varieties includes flat-podded 

 as well as round-podded kinds. As a general rule, the flavor of wax beans is somewhat milder than 

 that of the green-podded varieties. Their rich, light yellow color also has a special appeal usually 

 associated with the idea of tenderness and flavor. One packet will sow 25 feet of row. One lb. for 

 100 ft.; 60 lbs. per acre.
