The Contender is a high-yielder. They are round-oval pods with a robust and distinctive flavor. Great variety for canning and freezing. They do well in cool climates with the short growing season and tolerate hot temperatures. The U.S. Vegetable Laboratory, in Charleston, S.C., bred this impressive variety and released it in 1949. Also known as Buff Valentine.
