With a name like King of the Garden Lima Bean, you can expect great things. This pole bean produces prolific yields of 7" pods full of large white lima beans with sweet, smooth flavor. Vines can grow 9'-10' high. Will continue to blossom and produce throughout the hot summer months. Cook them before you eat them fresh, as raw lima beans are toxic.
