Seeds are produced in partnership with The Landis Valley Heirloom Seed Project.
About- Vines grow up to 12 feet long and produce 5 inch pods, each containing 3 or 4 large lima beans. Delicious fresh in green shell stage or dried in bean dishes. For best results, start Dr. Martin Lima Beans indoors and move outside when soil is warm (late spring) 90 days to green shell stage.
When and Where to Plant- Select a sunny location and plant in early spring, as soon as the soil can be worked. For best results, loosen soil with spade or fork, fertilize with vegetable food and smooth over with a rake. Firm soil over seed and keep soil moist.
Care and Harvest- Grows best in a soil with a pH between 6 and 7, and just a light application of garden fertilizer. Water at ground level to reduce the probability of disease. For green shell stage, pick beans when the seeds have formed and the pod is firm when squeezed. For dried beans, allow the pods to dry on the stalk before picking.
