2008 Mark Futterman Bean Project Trials

These images are for viewing by friends and colleagues of the Victory Seed Company who are working on similar growing trials.  Not intended for distribution to the general public.

This page represents the effort of multiplying samples sent to us to help recreate the Mark Futterman Bean Collection.  We have located twenty five (25) pole-types and eight (8) bush-types.  After re-researching the issue of bean crossing, we decided to take the conservative path and limit the number of varieties to maintain large isolation distances.

There are a lot of images so the page may take some time to load.
