50 days — Also known as 'Green Crop' and 'Bush Kentucky Wonder'. The plants grow eighteen to twenty inches tall and produce stringless pods that reach about seven inches long with white seeds.

The crop matures at one time and is bred for the north but widely adapted. Bred by Dr. Albert F. Yeager and released by the New Hampshire Agricultural Extension Service and the USDA in 1956. 'Greencrop' was an "All-American Selection®" winner the following year in 1957. About 70 seeds per ounce.

Planting Instructions: Beans prefer well-drained, rich soil in a sunny location. Make sure that you keep them well watered in the summer heat. Don’t bother trying to get an early start with beans – you’ll waste a lot of seed! Beans are tender and you should not plant them until all danger of frost has passed and the soil remains above 65ºF.

Sow seeds 1½ inches deep, every two to three inches. Bush-type beans do not require support.

Pick the pods while young as they are more tender and succulent and less likely to be stringy.
