Lima beans, aka butter beans (Phaseolus Lunatus).... need a growing season of about 4 months with relatively high temperatures, warmer than that needed by French or Runner beans.
I grow White Emergo (runner) as a butter bean http://www.growfruitandveg.co.uk/gra...eds_12941.htmlLast edited by Two_Sheds; 22-07-2009, 04:11 PM.All gardeners know better than other gardeners." -- Chinese Proverb.Comment
