They're both good. Have you tried Kentucky Blue?

I love the flavor of the pole beans, and they are easier to find and pick. We are pretty windy here, but I find if I keep them well watered and mulched, they do very well.

I always plant KY Wonder Pole, they are only stringy if you let them get too big. They produce until frost, mine are on their second blooming and I've canned 35 quarts off my 30 foot double row! I have more at my Dad's and he is in the country. Wind doesn't seem to bother them on a sturdy fence.

We are growing 8 varieties of pole beans this year. Kentucky Blue is tops on the list.
Muddy knees David! Compost is my friend. Every day I enroll in gardening school. Some days it feels like kindergarten!
