Notes
'Maxibel' bean (Phaseolus vulgaris 'Maxibel') 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. It grows at a rapid rate and needs a trellis or other support to climb. The pods are long and elegant.
Pairs well with Hungarian Heart Tomato tomato, Pesto Perpetuo basil, and Dark Green Italian parsley.
