Re: 3 sisters variety advice

Square Foot Gardening List - http://www.flinet.com/~gallus/sqft.html

Laurie, the winter squash is the more appropriate one. I don't know how
tall your baby corn stalks will grow, but if they're super short, the Aztec
Half-Runner might be the right one. If they grow tall, the runner would be
appropriate. The bush beans are not. Defeats the purpose of the 3 sisters
planting. Margaret L
