Pole beans. I was kind of hoping to know what variety.

Instead of looking at plants, get seeds. Kentucky Wonders come in
bush and pole varieties. Soak the bean seeds in water for 12-24 hours
before planting them and they'll sprout a couple of days earlier. -

I thought it was way too late for that. Maybe that's why I didn't see
much in the way of started plants. Thanks to you and Sheldon; I didn't know I could start beans this late. I'll be picking up some seeds
this weekend. Bush beans. They come in a can, right? (laugh)
