(Phaseolus vulgaris)  48-54 days.    Snap Bean    Provider Bush Beans are very high yielding, 16-20″ plants, bearing medium green, round, high quality stringless pods about 5-8″ long, with purple bean seeds inside. The Provider Bush Green Bean, from Dr. Hoffman of South Carolina(1965), germinates well in cooler soil, and withstands adverse conditions. This early producing variety sets forth nice clusters of pods straight, widely adapted, slow to wilt, great for market growers. Provider Bush Green Bean is great for eating fresh, freezing, or canning. Disease Resistance: BCMV, NY 15, PMV, and rust resistant.

Planting Instructions for Provider Bush Bean Seeds

Sow Heirloom / Open Pollinated Provider Bush beans 1-2″ deep, 2-6″ apart, in rows 18-36″ apart, in full sun after danger of frost. Soaking bean seeds in water 1-2 hours before planting speeds germination. Germination occurs in 4-16 days in soil 60-85°F. Provide support for heirloom pole bean varieties. For snap beans, harvest when beans are 3-6″ long. For dry beans, leave pods on plants until pods are dry, brown, and crisp, and beans are hard and rattle in pod, if more drying is needed when danger of frost has arrived, pick pods or pull entire plant and hang upside down to dry further.

    These are THE BEST bush beans I have ever planted! They’re heavy producers even in adverse weather conditions—unseasonably cold and wet spring and summer.

    Excellent!
