Notes
'Goldcrop' bean (Phaseolus vulgaris 'Goldcrop') is a climbing vegetable for the food garden. It is typically grown as an annual. It is tender to cold, and the first hard frost will kill it. This plant likes full sun and average moisture. It grows at a rapid rate, so give it a trellis or poles to climb. It blooms in spring and again in summer.
Pairs well with Honey corn, Candyland Red tomato, and Pesto Perpetuo basil.
