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.

Excellent definitive group process textbook - not dry or verbose
Yalom certainly conveys his knowledge, research, and experience clearly in an organized, interesting, and engaging way that makes this textbook easy reading, but not at all simplistic. Had to stop and "chew" on material often to absorb. A must for anyone who has the responsibility of facilitating a therapy group. Not for support group-related work, especially. This is process group 100%.

The Most Clear and Accessible (Not to Mention Funny) Treatment of the Trinity I Have Ever Encountered
Format: Paperback
The Trinity may be the most difficult Doctrine of the Church to understand and it is even more difficult to explain clearly; yet it is also central and essential to the Christian Faith. This makes it very difficult for those of us in ministry who want to teach about the Nature of God with accuracy, clarity, and care. More often than not, discussions of God’s Triune nature involve analogies of water, apples, hats, and other such symbols that never seem to really help anyone’s understanding and serve only to muddy the theological waters. Stephen Bullivant’s concise, fair-minded, humorous, and incredibly accessible work is truly a breath of fresh air. It has brought much needed relief from bad analogies and incredible clarity to a difficult topic. I will even go so far as to say it has re-shaped both my thinking about and teaching of the Trinity. What I love most about this book is that I can recommend it to anyone. The clarity of thought with which Bullivant writes, and the ease with which he uses pop-culture and humor to illuminate complex ideas make this a rare book on theology that provides the reader with both the erudition of a scholar and the art a communicator. I have been teaching from this book at our church since I read it last Spring and I can attest from the feedback that I have gotten that it has been a game-changer on the topic of the Trinity for many people here. Quite a few have told me that the way Bullivant explains the Trinity has brought them clarity one this the Doctrine for the first time in their Christian experience. I cannot recommend this book highly enough for anyone in ministry that is looking for a way to communicate a very difficult theological topic with clarity, humor, humility, and care.

A Clear, Readable, and Necessary Contribution
Format: Paperback
This is a clear, readable, and necessary book. The Trinity is the central mystery of the Christian faith, but it can be difficult to articulate in a simple and coherent way. As one who regularly teaches the topic in the Catholic high school setting, I appreciated the very accessible approach that the author takes. Anyone who struggles with the basic meaning of the doctrine would benefit from this text, as would those who are tasked with explaining it to others. From the very first page of the book, the author presents the doctrine of the Trinity through three basic statements: 1. There is only one God. 2. The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit is each God. 3. The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are not the same. Besides a very good opening chapter on the ability to speak about God at all, the entire book is basically an unpacking of why the Church came to believe in these three statements and the problems (aka heresies) that arise when any one of the three is denied. Over the course of the book, the reader will become familiar with many of the key biblical texts underlying the doctrine of the Trinity and the early theologians who defended it. While this is not primarily a work of doctrinal history, the arguments are almost entirely based on the thought of these fourth and fifth century theologians. Two points are worth noting, though neither was a "deal breaker" for me: First, be ready for lots of references to popular culture. I was surprised to see mentions of everything from Wayne's World and Borat to the song Achy Breaky Heart and the Three Amigos. These are no doubt great examples from the author's experience, as university teacher, in connecting the subject matter to his student audience. But in almost every instance I found myself drawn away from the topic at hand and in some cases I was left pondering the usefulness of the gratuitous reference itself. Luckily, I got almost every single one--until a late reference to the British TV series Father Ted forced me to look it up on Google. Second, I'm not sure if this book is still in such an early printing that it hasn't been physically typeset yet, but my edition looked as though an inkjet printer produced it. In an age of Retina display screens, it was a bit odd being disappointed in the quality of actual printed text. Overall, I highly recommend the book. I've just ordered the author's previous book from Paulist Press and look forward to his future works.

This book is good if you wish to know the heresies of the Trinity. It does not cover the inner working relationships of the Trinity.

It doesn't have to be a mystery
Format: Paperback
The answer almost every Catholic including the clergy give regarding the Trinity is "its a mystery." Its not if you read Bullivant it is now a discussion and conversation about the Christian understanding of God. Now the person in the pew can help explain "the mystery" to the clergy who haven't read The Trinity. The author introduces the Trinity as "supreme simplicity" and then guides discussion through an adult presentation of a fundamental belief among Christians. The style is very conversational with wonderful and one could say fun examples. The author makes excellent use of scripture and the writings of the early Christian church before all the disputes and splits started. He does it all in about a 100 pages. Perfect for the curious, those wanting a real answer about the Trinity and for small study groups. Finally it is done with an ecumenical approach that allows Christians to dialogue together and with those with different or no faith tradition.
