Also known as the 'Original Dwarf' or 'Bush Butterbean'. The most popular "baby" lima. An early, reliable, prolific, easy picker! An excellent canner or freezer, and ideal for all market gardeners. Produces a continuous crop from the time it begins to bear until heavy frost. Pods are 3" long, containing 3 or 4 tender-sweet beans. Fine for dry winter use as well. Suited to all climates North or South.
