Great Northern beans were enjoyed for centuries by the Mandan people of modern-day North Dakota. The plants will typically grow to around 2?? tall, producing many 5?? pods that will yield 5 or 6 seeds each. The beans are commonly used in soups, and though they do not have much taste by themselves will take on other flavors readily and provide good texture. Like most other beans, they should be direct-seeded about 3-4?? apart and thinned to about 6?? for growing plants. Great Northern beans typically require between 65-90 days of growth before harvesting and are cultivated as a dry Bean. Approx. 17 seeds
