Notes
'Improved Commodore' bean (Phaseolus vulgaris 'Improved Commodore') is a climbing vegetable for the food garden. It is typically grown as an annual. It cannot take cold, and a freeze will end its season. This plant likes full sun and average moisture. It grows at a rapid pace, so give it a trellis or poles to climb. It blooms in spring and again in summer.
