Strike is a productive, resilient bush bean prized by home and commercial growers for its heavy, concentrated yields and excellent flavor. Compact plants produce uniform, dark green, stringless pods 5 to 6 inches long. Its concentrated pod set makes it ideal for canning, and the pods are equally good fresh or frozen.
