Frequently Asked Questions

Contender Bush Beans do not need a trellis to grow.
Bush bean plants grow close to the ground in smaller compact spaces. These bushy plants are perfect for growing in raised beds or containers. They produce beans closer together that hang near the ground.

Unlike pole bean varieties, bush beans produce most of their crop all at once.
Bush bean plants mature quickly, in about 50 days. Check regularly for ripe beans and harvest them frequently to help facilitate more growth. With proper care, your plant may yield a few smaller harvests.

Leave the bean pods on your plant until the beans rattle inside the pod. Separate the pods from the beans inside. Let the beans dry in a cool environment, and store them to plant again next season.

Yes, beans are self pollinating, meaning they do not need outside sources for fruit production.
The flowers of bush beans have everything needed to pollinate themselves. Bees and other pollinators may visit their flowers to collect nectar and spread pollen, but it is not necessary for the beans' production.
