          The Contender bush bean is a popular and productive heirloom variety known for its early maturity and resilience in various climates. These bush beans produce high yields of 6-8 inch, stringless, tender pods that are perfect for fresh eating, canning, and freezing. Contender bush beans are resistant to common bean diseases, making them a reliable choice for home gardeners. A great variety to choose for both early season cool temperatures and can withstand the heat in the summer.
I ordered both contender beans and jade beans. I planted all 25 seeds from each packet. One of the packets has 13 plants and the other has 9. I grow in nursery pots (10 gallon) and use potting mix from the Arizona Worm Farm. I may have planted the seeds too shallow.
Received seeds in a timely manner
Your Contender Bean seed packets were the only Contender variety that I could find this season. Not sure why they are now so scarce,, and so was glad to see you carried them. Thank you!
I haven't planted them yet. Still too cold here in upstate NY. All the seeds I've gotten from you have done well so I expect these will too.
Great germination. Production was good. Great harvest. Grew beans in my Greenstalk.
