Gold Mine Bush Wax Bean
Growing Gold Mine Bush Wax Bean
‘Gold Mine’ is a productive yellow-podded bush bean prized for its heavy yields, smooth pods, and tender texture. Vigorous, upright plants produce abundant crops of bright yellow-gold beans with consistent quality throughout the season. Strong disease resistance adds to its dependable garden performance.
Sow ‘Gold Mine’ directly in the garden about 1 inch deep after the danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed. Space plants about 2 inches apart and grow in full sun. Plants typically reach 16 to 18 inches tall and grow in a compact bush habit, so no trellising is required.
Ready to harvest in about 55 days, begin picking the 5- to 6-inch pods while they are still young, smooth, and tender. Harvest frequently to encourage continued production and maintain the best texture and flavor.
Tender, colorful, and versatile, ‘Gold Mine’ is excellent for fresh eating, cooking, canning, and freezing.
