Notes

'Supergreen' bean (Phaseolus vulgaris 'Supergreen') 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, so give it a trellis or other support to climb. It blooms in spring and again in summer.

Pairs well with Lemon cucumber, Cherry Belle radish, Cilantro, and Crokini F1 tomato.
