'Poamoho' Pole Bean

'Poamoho' is a vigorous, productive pole bean that produces long, straight, flat pods of the type preferred by Hawaiian consumers. The pods are stringless, however, unlike those of other similar cultivars. 'Poamoho', like the similar 'Manoa Wonder', is resistant to root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne incognita) and has some field resistance to Rhizoctonia. It is intended to replace 'Manoa Wonder' but is an improvement because it is earlier and more productive, and the stringless pods are tender even when overmature.
