Phaseolus ‘Fordhook 242’ - Ounces

The "Bush Lima / Fordhook 242" refers to the Fordhook 242, a popular bush variety of large-seeded lima bean known for its high yields, heat and drought tolerance, and crisp, buttery flavor. Introduced by the USDA in the 1940s, it won an All-America Selections (AAS) award for its vigor and productivity. The plants are compact, require no staking, and produce large, light green pods with 3-5 plump beans, making them excellent for freezing, canning, or fresh use.
