71 days. Introduced in 1888 by Peter Henderson & Co. and one of their most famous varieties; still popular to this day. Henderson offered in 1888 $100.00 in cash for plants bearing the most pods and said, “A VEGETABLE WONDER!!!” & “Can and should be grown in every garden...” & “Of all the Novelties ... ever sent out, there is nothing so entirely distinct and valuable as this New Vegetable.” Dwarf bush plants can be grown like regular bush beans. Very tasty, tender lima beans, and very early too! Pkt (100 seeds)
