Tender Rush Reans - Green and Wax Pod 
Nicholson’s Garden Beans 
Bush beams are easy to grow and are one of the most profitable crops for the 
home gardener. Plan to sow them in succession and you can have fresh beans 
almost all year. Select varieties that are tender and stringless for real quality. 
Green Beans or Wax Beans are a matter of taste. Plant most of the kind you like 
best, some of each for variety. Plant beans after all danger of frost is past, in 
well prepared soil, rows 2 to 3 feet apart, cover 1 to 11/4 inches. Shallow cultiva- 
tion should be frequent until blooming then stop, to avoid injury to the root. 
For succession, plant every two weeks.
