Notes

'Royal Burgundy' bean (Phaseolus vulgaris 'Royal Burgundy') 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 is an organic purple bean with a climbing habit, so give it a trellis or stakes. It grows rapidly and blooms in purple and green.

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