Notes

'Seychelles' bean (Phaseolus vulgaris 'Seychelles') is a vegetable for food gardens and containers. It is typically grown as an annual. It is not cold-hardy and will not survive freezing temperatures. This plant likes full sun and average moisture. It is a fast-growing vine with white and green flowers. Pods are ready about 55 days after planting, and the plant resists Bean Common Mosaic Virus.

Pairs well with Honey corn, Pesto Perpetuo basil, and Mountain Merit F1 tomato.
