Cultivation
Green beans are found in two major groups, bush beans and pole beans.
Bush beans are short plants, growing to approximately two feet in height, without requiring supports. They generally reach maturity and produce all of their fruit in a relatively short period of time, then cease to produce. Gardeners may grow more than one crop of bush beans in a season.
Pole beans have a climbing habit and produce a twisting vine . Runner beans have a similar habit but are a different species of bean.
