Notes
'Pearlgreen' bean (Phaseolus vulgaris 'Pearlgreen') 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 and grows at a rapid pace, so give it a trellis or poles to twine up. It blooms in early to late summer.
Pairs well with Butternut squash, Buffalosun F1 tomato, Borage, and Pesto Perpetuo basil.
