Culture of Green Podded Pole Beans. Pole beans are 
later in maturing than bush beans, but bear for a longer 
season and are extremely productive, yielding more 
than bush beans, and also produce bigger pods. They 
are somewhat more tender than bush beans if harvested 
young. For best results, pole beans should be supported 
by wires or by good strong poles to keep them off the 
ground. Poles should be 8 to 9 feet above ground, and 
set firmly in the ground, in rows 3 to 4 feet apart, and 
three feet apart in the row. Plant three to four seeds 
around each pole. When plants are well established, 
thin to two or three plants to a pole. A better arrange- 
ment would be to place three or four poles tent-fashion 
at 3 ft. spacings in the row, and then thin to one plant 
at a pole. In order to keep pole beans bearing over a 
long season, it is important to keep them closely picked.

for best results. (See page 69.) Pole beans are more 
susceptible to mildew, rust and other foliage diseases 
than are bush beans, and therefore should be sprayed 
with Sulfocide or dusted with sulphur quite often. (See 
pages 53 and 62.)

green, oval, straight, long, averaging from 8 to 9 inches,

KENTUCKY WONDER (OLD HOMESTEAD). (65 
days.) This is a popular, vigorous, hardy, climbing or 
pole bean, early and very productive over a long season. 
Pods are very long, ranging from eight to ten inches, 
curved, nearly round, with undulating surface. Though 
thick, they appear slender on account of their great 
length. Pods are meaty, very brittle, and of good qual- 
ity if harvested young. The pods hang in large clusters 
from the top to the bottom of the vine. Our strain has 
been selected for productivity, earliness and freedom 
from flat pods.

become the leading pole bean on the lower east coast of 
Florida for shipment to northern markets.
