About Calima

(Phaseolus vulgaris) Bush bean. An employee favorite at Baker Creek, this French filet type produces slim, straight, and delicious pods of the highest quality. Pods are held conveniently at the top of the stocky bushes; pick them when they are no thicker than a pencil. The 7- to 8-inch long pods are fine for fresh use, canning, and freezing. With an easier harvest, high yield, and really refined gourmet flavor, this is a winner for home gardeners and farmers alike. 50-55 days to maturity Full sun Sprouts in 7-14 days Seed Depth: 1/2" to 1" Ideal Temperature: 70-80 F Plant Spacing: 4" Frost Hardy: No
