Notes
'Jade' bean (Phaseolus vulgaris 'Jade') is a 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 climbs fast, so give it a support to grow on. The long, attractive pods are the main reward.
Pairs well with Honey corn, Pesto Perpetuo basil, and Mountain Merit F1 tomato.
