Notes

'Keystonian' bean (Phaseolus vulgaris 'Keystonian') is a 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. It climbs quickly, so give it a trellis or pole to grow on.

Pairs well with Cucumber, Winter squash, Parsley, and Pink Delicious tomato.
