Culture—Lima Beans are very susceptible to cold and seeds should not be planted until the 
ground has become thoroughly warm. Being gross feeders, they should be sown on well-enriched 
land, with the rows 2% feet apart, placing the beans six inches apart in the row, eye down. In 
light soil, cover about one inch deep, less on heavier soils. 1 Pkt. for 25 ft. of row; one 
pound will plant 150 feet of row.

Culture—Pole Limas are even less hardy than the Bush type and should not be planted until 
toward the end of May or when all danger of frost is past. Set the poles about 4 feet apart each 
way and plant 6 to 8 beans, eye downward, around each pole. When plants are up, thin out to 3 
plants to a pole. Pinch off the ends when plants overrun the top of the poles. It is good practice 
to use a shovelful of rich, light, well-rotted compost under each hill. 1 Pkt. for 15 poles; 
one Ib. for 100 poles.
