A couple of years ago you sent me some seed beans , today I planted
the black beans you sent . Do these need to be trellised or are they a
bush bean ? I have materials on hand to build a trellis for them if
needed ...

p.s. if they are the Turtle Beans or the Coco and Red
Ryder cross those should mostly be bush beans that finish
up pretty quickly.

Thanks for the quick responses ! These are a shiny bean , larger than
kidney or Navy beans . I planted all I had , so no pics until they
mature . I have one more strip I might plant with some cowpeas , I just
don't know which I want to grow . Probably the Red Rippers , we like
them with a chunk of ham and some seasoning . We don't eat a lot of
beans , the wife got pretty much all she cared to eat while growing up .
