Bean Bush Baby Lima Henderson's Organic Heirloom Seed

Phaseolus lunatus

Item #3021

65 days. These white, small “baby” lima beans have a delicious flavor, and mature earlier than most limas. This bush lima will be loaded with pods — quite productive! And believe us, the flavor is not what you remember your mom feeding you as a kid; fresh lima beans taste incredible! Can be eaten fresh, frozen, or dried.
