How are those for stringiness? Our catalogs only have one yellow pole
variety, and it's a Kentucky Wonder type that's pretty stringy. I'd
love to find a yellow pole bean that makes as good a bean as the bush
varieties.

This is my first year to try them so I really don't know. But IIRC, I
picked that variety because it was the only one in my catalogs. I had
been planting bush wax beans and they took up too much room in my tiny
garden for the yield I got from them.
