For Limas, my best crop was from Violet's Multicolor Butterbeans a few years back. I tend to grow out one variety a year to keep it pure. Right now, my Willowleaf limas are full of buds but very few pods set yet. It usually isn't until September that they start doing so. Race to the first hard frost - we are at 62F this morning - very cool for the end of August!
