Notes

'Dulcina' bean (Phaseolus vulgaris 'Dulcina') is a climbing vegetable for the food garden. It is typically grown as an annual. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full sun and average moisture. Gardeners grow it for its tender, full-flavored Italian beans. It grows at a rapid rate, so give it a trellis or pole to climb.

Pairs well with RuBee Dawn tomato, Saladmore Bush F1 cucumber, and Pesto Perpetuo basil.
