Description
(Phaseolus vulgaris) Semi-bush pole. A cherished heirloom that holds cultural and religious significance among Seventh-day Adventists in North America. Highly valued for its nutritional benefits and versatile culinary uses, reflecting the Adventist commitment to vegetarian dietary practices that promote well-being and longevity.

Growing Tips, Tricks and FAQs
Growing Tips
An early maturing type, it is best suited for drying, but can be eaten as a snap bean when young. These plants produce heaps of 3-inch flat green pods decorated with light red streaks containing 4 to 6 honey yellow colored beans per pod. They have an upright semi-bush habit that produces runners capable of climbing to 4 feet with support.
When to Grow
Plant outdoors after the last frost, when soil temperatures are consistently above 60 F. This typically corresponds to late spring to early summer, depending on your USDA hardiness zone. It isn’t frost-hardy and prefers 70-80 F. Learn more about your region’s frost dates by checking out our blog post, ‘Our Experts Answer Questions, Share Resources.’
How to Sow and Plant
Preparation: Soak seeds overnight before planting to encourage germination.
Planting: Sow seeds about 1/2 to 1 inch deep in the soil. Space the plants 6-10 inches apart, and use a trellis or pole for support. For row planting, maintain a distance of 60 cm (24 inches) between rows.
Conditions: Ensure the planting site is in full sun and the soil is well-drained. Sprouts usually appear in 5-8 days.
How to Grow
Use a trellis or poles to support the climbing vines, which can reach heights of up to 10 feet. Keep the soil evenly moist, especially during the flowering period, but avoid overwatering. For fresh beans, harvest when pods are young and tender. For dry beans, allow the pods to mature fully on the vine before picking. Harvest frequently to keep plants productive.
How to Save
- Common beans do not easily cross pollinate and can be grown close to one another, making them the ideal seed-saving project for beginners.
- Save seeds from the best-looking, best-tasting, and most vigorous beans.
- Leave pods on the plant to dry. Pull the plants and shake them vigorously into a bag to release the beans from the pods (same as you would for using them as dried beans).
- Store in a cool, dry place for the winter (a glass jar in the refrigerator works well!).
FAQ
Can I grow Adventist Pole beans in containers?
Yes, provided you use a large container with a support structure such as a trellis or poles, and ensure the soil remains well-drained and consistently moist.
How long does it take for Adventist Pole beans to mature?
The beans typically take about 70-80 days to mature.
How do I get better germination?
Ensure soil temperatures are consistently above 60°F during planting, as cooler temperatures can hinder germination. Additionally, soaking the seeds before planting can improve germination rates.
