Alice Whitis

Pole bean, vigorous climber, super productive. Excellent flavored green beans with pink-red seeds for snap, shell or dry bean. Pods tender even when large. Originally grown by Alice Whitis, Acorn, KY, during the 1930s and who lived to be almost 100 years. I grew this to resupply a coworker's family who lost their supply of "Alice" beans. Now it's my favorite bean for the hot, humid, buggy mid-Atlantic. Did well in sandy soil. 2024 seed. From WI MI B.
