View all bean seeds

The Thorogreen Lima Bean is a high-yielding heirloom that loves higher temperatures. Plump, light green pods grow at the top of a compact plant for easy harvesting. Both fresh and dried beans have a smooth, buttery flavor. When eating fresh, be sure to cook them, as raw beans are toxic. This compact bush-type plant spreads wider than green beans, so give them room to grow.

  • Easy to grow
  • Bush growth habit
  • Heat loving
  • Early producer

Guaranteed Harvest from Seeds Now
I can’t wait to get a yield from my beautiful Lima’s & green beans. I love seeds now because I always get a beautiful vegetables anytime I plant using their seeds. You can count on seedlings popping up between 7-14 days of sowing them.

I cannot say anything about the bean. I have only received the packet and placed it with my other seeds to be started.

Great Vendor
I had an issue with something I ordered, which when received I thought was overpriced. I complained and I immediately received a full refund for the item without any further question.
