‘Ebrdiook Bush Lina Beans 


Lima beans are not as hardy as snap beans and should not be planted before the ground is warm and frost is over. Plant bush limas in 3- 
foot rows, dropping three beans 15 inches apart in the row, eyes downward. For the tall varieties, before the seeds are planted set 6 to 8- 
foot poles firmly in the center of the hills 3 feet apart in 4-foot rows. Cover the beans 1!/, inches deep; cultivate only when the vines are dry. 
One pound of the large seeded varieties plants 60 hills; 60 pounds to the acre. One pound of the small seeded varieties plants 100 hills; 30
