The Henderson Lima Bean is a bush bean that was first introduced in New York by Peter Henderson & Company in 1888 and gained popularity with local gardeners because it did not require poles for support, unlike the pole variety.

Henderson Lima Bean seeds are small and creamy white in color. They do not tolerate cold temperatures, so they need to be planted after the last frost of the season. Soil temperature of at least 65 degrees is ideal. Being of the bush variety, the Henderson lima bean plant can grow anywhere from 12-18 inches. It is a hearty and strong bush that is also good for growing indoors in pots because of its manageable size and stature. Henderson limas reach maturity earlier than most limas, on average at about 65 days. The bean pods are broad and flat and can be anywhere from 3-5 inches in length.

Sowing The Seed

Lima Beans can be started indoors, or directly outdoors as well. If started indoors, sow in peat pots, 6 to 8 weeks prior to the last frost. The beans are rather large, so be sure to place them at a depth of at least 1” under topsoil. Provide a support for early sprouts to cling to. Transplant, or direct sow your Lima Beans in the garden when the weather has warmed and all danger of frost has passed.

Growing Conditions

Lima Beans will require an area of full sunlight for the majority of the day. The plants will thrive in temperatures of at least 65F and require a soil that is fertile and rich in organic matter. You must also make sure that your sowing medium is well drained as well. Adding a light compost to any areas containing hard, compact soil will improve your overall drainage. Water the seeds daily until germination occurs.

Germination & Growth

Lima Beans typically germinate within a good 7 to 21 days after sowing. The plants will reach a mature height of roughly 18 to 24 inches tall and can spread about 12 inches wide. They can be spaced roughly 12 to 18 inches apart from one another. Henderson Lima is a very high yielding bush bean. Harvest in 65 to 70 days.

Harvesting Georgia Southern Collard Greens

Henderson Lima Beans may be harvested anywhere from 60-80 days after germination when the pods feel full and firm, but before the pods start to turn yellow. The plants tend to yield beans all at once so be ready! To save some seeds, allow a number of pods to dry and pick at the end of the season. Once completely dried, the seeds can be stored for up to a year in a cool, dry place. Henderson lima beans have an incredible flavor and can be enjoyed fresh and even frozen or dried.

Elegant Hammered Gold Plastic Forks That Don't Feel Cheap
Color: Gold Forks, Size: 60Pcs, Color: Gold Forks, Size: 60Pcs
These forks were a fun addition to our holiday table. They’re a bright, shiny gold with a hammered finish and honestly look much more expensive than they are. At a glance, they really do resemble real gold flatware. They’re also surprisingly solid. These are not flimsy, fast-food-style plastic utensils. The forks feel sturdy in your hand and can easily handle everything from salad to steak—no bending tines or snapping. Once they’re on the table, you wouldn’t know they’re plastic until you pick them up. They only downside to them is that the design to have them come to a point at the end of the handle made it slightly uncomfortable in my hand while using it. They’re an excellent option for weddings, parties, or any event where you want an elegant table setting without using real metal flatware. They also hand-wash well and can be reused multiple times, which makes them a nice choice even for at-home entertaining when you want something that looks special without the worry.

Surprisingly sturdy at 3¢ each, better than expected for a large 1,000-count bulk spoon box 🥄📦
📝 Summary For about 3 cents per spoon, I expected these to be extremely flimsy. They are still disposable plastic spoons, but they are stronger than I expected and a very solid value for a 1,000-count box. ✅ Pros    • Very low cost per spoon.    • Stiffer than many bargain disposable spoons.    • Reinforced shape helps the handle resist bending.    • Useful for parties, lunches, quick meals, and everyday convenience.    • Serious value for the money if you use disposable utensils often. ⚠️ Cons    • Not as sturdy as metal utensils or thick premium plastic spoons.    • Still disposable, so the waste tradeoff is worth thinking about.    • Hard frozen foods may still need a little care. 🥄 Review At this price per spoon, I expected these to feel like the cheapest, flimsiest spoons possible. They actually surprised me. The design helps a lot. The handle has a shaped, reinforced feel, and the spoon does not bend as easily as many low-cost disposable spoons I have used. It is not metal-spoon sturdy, and it is not the same as a thick premium plastic spoon, but it is definitely better than I expected for the price. For normal meals, snacks, lunches, parties, and quick cleanups, these are completely practical. They could even handle softer ice cream with a little effort, which is more than I can say for some thin disposable spoons that fold almost immediately. The main selling point is the value. A 1,000-count box at this price makes sense if you want disposable spoons around the house or for gatherings. There is still the environmental side to consider, but from a convenience and cost standpoint, these are a strong buy. 💡 Quick tips    • Good for parties, lunch bags, office kitchens, crafts, and pet-food scooping.    • Keep some in a car, picnic bin, pantry, or emergency kit.    • For hard ice cream, let it soften slightly first. 🧑‍🍳 My take I bought these expecting very basic spoons, but they are better than that. They are not fancy, but they are sturdy enough, useful, and priced very well for how many you get. I would buy them again.

Exactly why I expected
I ordered the Amazon Basics disposable white spoons primarily for the office. We have veteran events to inform and educate about veterans benefits. Funding is limited, so I try to save money where possible and these spoons were a great value! They come out to less than 3 cents each and they will last over a year. They are the same quality and feel of the plastic spoons we previously bought at the local grocery store, but due to the larger quantity it is a much better value. I decided to break the big box down into gallon zip lock bags, which made storage easier in my case. This also allowed them to be easier transported and to track usage better. We previously would buy just enough for each event, but that was a hassle with the higher costs and the trips to the grocery store. They are sturdy and hold up to use in thick dips. I would recommend these for anyone trying to save som money and spend less trips to the grocery store.
