Hoss Green Blaze Bush Bean
This brand new bush bean is the best heat set bean we have ever seen! The Hoss Green Blaze has a compact and upright uniform growth habit that does very well in the sweltering extreme heat of the South. This heat-loving variety makes a great candidate for machine harvesting or hand-picking because the pods sit high on the upright plant. The pods themselves are very sturdy and uniform in length, diameter, and color and have good stem length when harvested which helps dramatically with shelf-life. Hoss Green Blaze Bush Bean produces attractive dark green pods with white beans that measure 6-7″ long, slender pods. Phaseolus Vulgans. 55 Days to Maturity.

Beans should be planted in spring after the last frost has occurred. Beans will germinate best once soil temps have reached 65 F or higher. Optimal germination temperature is around 77 F. Seeds can require 8 to 16 days to germinate, depending on the soil temperature. For continual production, succession plant every couple of weeks throughout the spring and early summer. Plants will drop blooms or cease production in the heat of summer. Subsequent succession plantings may be made in late summer/fall, as long as enough time is permitted before the first frost date.
Direct seeding is recommended. We suggest using a #6 plate on the Hoss Garden Seeder and modifying the hole size (if necessary) to fit the seed size. Beans should be planted relatively thick along the row and thinned to the desired spacing. To maximize garden space, consider using a double-row spacing. For double-row spacing, rows may be planted as close as 6″ apart with 3′ spacing between double rows. For single row spacing, 2′ to 3′ spacing is recommended.

Take a bow, Hoss Tools. These were the star of the show in my fall garden. The plants are sturdy with dark green velvet like foliage and they load up. I'm in the AR Ozarks and these beans out produced any that I've grown over the years. They will be a staple in my spring and fall crops in the future.
We have always been pleased with anything we’ve ordered from Hoss. And their YouTube cancel is great. Nice people and lots of good information for the home gardener.
Good bean. Great flavor. Germination was about 80%. Produced heavy.
I’m very pleased with this variety. I got them in late, which usually would mean few beans due to our very hot (100+ F) Kansas summers. These plants are absolutely loaded, and even after two pickings they’re still blooming and producing heavily. The plants are sturdy and keep upright pretty well. No rust, no trouble with pests. I have extra seed, so I’ll put in a second crop for fall. I’ll for sure order these again.
I planted a row of Green Blaze and a row of Blue Lake at the same time. It’s mid July, the Blue Lake are done. We are still picking beans off the Green Blaze . It rained the last couple of days and the Green Blaze not only has beans all over them, the plants are blooming again! I have a succession row of Green Blaze that I planted just to test Hoss’s claims. They are covered in blooms also! I have no doubt that if I can keep the grasshoppers off them, we are going to have beans galore!!
