These grew well in my Maryland garden. Plants are semi-bush like, they start bearing at bush size and continue to bloom and bear, start to climb on top of one another, or up a neighboring fence, before cold weather got them. The green beans can be shelled out and eaten fresh (even in the garden, tasty) as soon as the pod fills out. Or let the pod yellow and start to dry and pick it.
