Yardlong Bean

A variety of Yardlong bean [3 feet plus, white bean? Can't remember]


Do they get to be a yard long? Pretty close. I often see them at 30 inches or so.
Love the Florida summer. Maybe 60 days to flowering? I started these in March.

Prolific as hell. Two plants, about one week.
That's a regular sized dinner plate, sports fans.

Covered in roast onion and tarragon pesto
I'll even have them for brunch

Florida. Summer.
Watching the yardlong beans grow
a sweet recompense


You can get seeds at Evergreen Seeds.
That's a lot of beans for $4.50 worth of seeds.
