Each bean is a work of art—light cream in color with deep maroon splashes, spots, and swirls—making it as decorative as it is delicious.

Whether enjoyed fresh as a green-shelled bean or dried for long-term use, Christmas Lima Beans offer outstanding flavor, productivity, and old-fashioned charm.

Planting & Growing Tips

• When to Plant: Sow seeds directly outdoors after the danger of frost has passed and soil has warmed to at least 65°F (18°C)
• Spacing: Plant seeds 1 to 1.5 inches deep, spaced 6 inches apart in rows 30 to 36 inches apart
• Support Needed: Provide a strong trellis, fence, or pole structure for vines to climb—these plants can reach 8–10 feet
• Sunlight: Full sun is essential for maximum yield—6 to 8 hours daily
• Watering: Keep soil evenly moist but not soggy, especially during flowering and pod development
• Harvest Time:
• For fresh use: Pick when pods are plump but still green
• For dried beans: Leave pods to fully dry on the vine before shelling and storing
