Growing Tips:
A climbing bean, provide a trellis of frame for plants to climb. Likes a warm sunny position in well draining soil but also enjoys a drink, so water regularly and cover any exposed soil nearby with mulch to help maintain soil moisture without flooding the soil. When pods have sized up harvest often to help encourage more pods to form.
