Giant Peruvian Lima Bean Seeds

Grow Something Extraordinary

The Giant Peruvian Lima Bean is a heritage pole bean prized for its oversized, creamy beans and exceptional yields. Whether you're filling a kitchen garden or stocking a homestead pantry, this variety delivers season after season.

Why Gardeners Love This Variety

• Impressive size — beans grow noticeably larger than standard lima varieties
• Rich, buttery flavor — smooth texture that holds up beautifully in soups, stews, and succotash
• High-yielding vines — regular harvesting keeps pods coming all season long
• Nutrient-dense — packed with plant-based protein, fiber, and essential minerals

Planting Guide

• Sow outdoors after the last frost when soil reaches 60–80°F
• Spacing: 5 inches apart with a sturdy trellis or pole for support
• Soil: moderately fertile; amend poor soil with compost before planting
• Watering: consistent moisture is key — deep water to encourage strong roots, especially during pod fill
• Mulch to retain moisture and suppress competing weeds

Harvesting

Harvest when pods are plump, well-filled, and still tender green — beans inside should be fully formed but not dried. Use garden shears or your hands to cut pods cleanly from the vine. The more you pick, the more the plant produces.

A true garden classic — bold, productive, and deeply satisfying to grow.
