Beans
Green Bean - Bean crop bested suited to milder climates, as its flowers will drop at high temperatures. Best sown when soils have warmed, after last frost. Bush beans spread out horizontally while pole beans need to climb vertically, needing support. Bush beans generally require less maintenance and are easier to grow, but pole beans typically yield more beans and are mostly disease-resistant.
