The pole beans spoil you because you can pick most of them standing up straight and they produce until frost from one planting of just a couple seeds.
This is what I do with my beans too. Bush beans planted first and a little early, followed by planting pole beans, then a new sowing of bush beans every 2-3 weeks.
