Notes

'Goldilocks' bean (Phaseolus vulgaris 'Goldilocks') is a climbing vegetable for the food garden. It is typically grown as an annual. It cannot take cold, and a freeze will end its season. This plant likes full sun and average moisture. It grows at a rapid pace and gives you bright yellow beans. Yellow and white flowers open in spring and summer.

Pairs well with Pineapple Tomato tomato, Pesto Perpetuo basil, and Dark Green Italian parsley.
