(Phaselous lunatus)
Lancaster White Bean - This one is also a bit of an enigma, the provenance is from my Grandfathers collection from Lancaster County, PA where the family has been since 1728. This is a white Lima with beans just over .5" and pods that are 6" long. The plants are semi climbers and tough as nails. Superior taste and a solid producer. 85-90 days.
