'Bush Fordhook 242' is a standard lima bean variety and an All-America Selections winner known for its smooth, nutty flavor. It is highly versatile and can be used for freezing, canning, and cooking. These bush-type plants yield abundant creamy-green colored beans with 3-4 large beans per pod, making them a great choice for growers in northern to southern zones. Additionally, this variety is heat and drought-tolerant.

Also known as Butterbeans, for a consistent supply of fresh beans, it is recommended to plant successive crops every two weeks, up to two months before the expected first frost.
