Comments: This is a vine type lima and does not require staking to grow. Old garden favorite introduced in the 70's. Pods have 4-6 big, cream-colored seeds. Sets pods from the very bottom of the vine. Largest of all lima pods. This is a lima bean but for sales analysis purposes it is included in the pole bean category. Strong grower, clings well to poles. Productive; bears until frost.
