Blue Lake beans are a popular variety of bush beans that are known for their high yield, easy maintenance, and exceptional taste. They are known for producing long, straight pods that are about 6-7 inches in length, and are a dark green color. Blue Lake beans are known for their uniformity in size and shape, making them an ideal choice for home gardeners who want to can or freeze their beans for later use.
This variety is a determinate type, meaning that all the beans ripen at the same time, usually in about 55-60 days after planting. They are a heat-tolerant variety, which makes them well-suited for warm climates and regions. They are also resistant to common bean diseases such as common bean mosaic virus and halo blight.
Blue Lake beans are easy to grow and maintain, and can be planted in a well-drained, fertile soil. They do not require staking or trellising as they are bush type and they are self-supporting. They prefer full sun, and like most beans, they need moderate water supply, but do not tolerate waterlogged soils.
