It was named for Thomas Jackson who farmed near Atlanta, GA after the Civil War.  Jackson Wonder Lima is a bush lima that grows about 2' tall and sets 3" pods. 

These pods contain 3-4 beans that are speckled with a purple-brown color. 

Delicious as a butter bean, but can be used dried for soups as well. 

Thrives in hot weather conditions.  Very popular in the South.
