Bean Seeds - Yellow Arikara

Yellow Arikara bean seeds produce warm-season annual plants traditionally grown for their adaptability and reliable growth. Plants typically develop a bush-type growth habit, making them suitable for garden beds, raised beds, and small plots without the need for trellising. This variety performs well in temperate to warm climates with full sun exposure and well-drained soil. Yellow Arikara beans adapt to a range of growing conditions and are suitable for home and small-scale garden planting.
