The Fordhook 242 lima bush bean is a robust and productive heirloom variety renowned for its large, creamy-white beans and exceptional flavor. This bush-type plant grows to about 16-20 inches tall and matures in approximately 70-80 days. The beans are thick, meaty, and ideal for fresh eating, freezing, or canning. Fordhook 242 is heat-tolerant and thrives in well-drained soil with full sun exposure. Its resilience to disease and pests makes it a reliable choice for gardeners.
As always, my order was fulfilled accurately, and in a timely manner. Thanks, thanks.

Great company and always good seeds
seedlings just sprouted! can't wait for harvest!
I grow these every year and they do very well. The harvest never makes it back into the house. I love to snack on them while I’m in the garden and my kids enjoy them too.
Rose tomatoe. I planted 5 seeds 4 germinated. I already transplanted them.
This basil is insane!! It’s growing so fast and the leaves are as big as the palm of my hand!
Awesome color on these. Beautiful addition to the (majority pink shades) zinnias I usually grow.
I have way more celery than I have room to plant!
