Burpee’s Stringless Green Pod Bush Bean delivers crisp, juicy pods that form early and stay reliable even when growing conditions fluctuate. This hardy heirloom matures in about 50 days and produces abundant 5–6 inch beans that stay entirely stringless. The compact, self-supporting plants thrive in heat and tolerate dry spells, making them an excellent choice for raised beds, containers, or traditional garden rows.

We ship to the Continental U.S. and Alaska only. We cannot ship to Hawaii, overseas U.S. military bases, or U.S. territories.

Growing Information

Planting

  • Sow seeds directly outdoors once soil temperatures warm and all frost danger has passed, spacing them to allow their 12 to 16 inch mature spread.
  • Plant seeds 1 inch deep in loose, well-drained soil with full sun exposure to support their fast development.
  • Germination is typically rapid in warm soil, helping these beans reach their 50–55 day maturity range.
  • Avoid planting in overly wet soil, as beans prefer airy conditions that prevent root stress.
  • Successive plantings spaced every two to three weeks help ensure a continuous supply of stringless pods throughout the growing season.
  • A balanced soil amendment at planting supports early root growth and promotes vigorous pod production.

Maintenance

  • These bush beans grow to a compact height of about 16 to 20 inches and need no staking or trellising.
  • Plants show resistance to mosaic virus and powdery mildew, making them a low-maintenance choice for busy gardeners.
  • Consistent watering supports steady pod development, though the plants tolerate brief dry periods well.
  • Mulching helps regulate soil moisture and limits weed competition around the compact root zone.
  • Removing overmature pods prevents the plant from slowing its overall production.

Harvest & Storage

  • Pods can be harvested when they reach their mature length of about 5 to 6 inches, ensuring crisp texture and best flavor.
  • Harvest frequently to encourage new production and maintain peak tenderness.
  • Because plants mature in roughly 50 days, multiple sowings can extend the harvest window through summer.
  • Store freshly picked pods unwashed in a breathable bag in the refrigerator to maintain moisture balance and prolong shelf life.
  • For longer preservation, beans can be blanched and frozen without losing their strong, meaty texture.
