BUSH BEANS 
The delicate, distinctive flavor and tenderness of the appetiz- 
ing waxy yellow pods make them a favorite in market or home 
gardens. As with green-pods, you have your choice of varieties 
with either round or flat pods. Round-podded varieties are the 
most desirable for home canning and freezing. Planting informa- 
tion given for Bush Snap Beans on page 98 applies to yellow and 
green pods alike. Bushes grow from 15 to 20 in. tall.
