I had a late start ordering my seeds, but they are all growing! Anxious for beautiful plants and blossoms!
Great Hummingbird attracted. Not a prolific seeder, but great bean. Pods can be steamed and are tasty and filling. Pods can be eaten.
We had these beans several years ago. I grew them on a wire fence and they covered it with orange-red blooms. We picked them for salads, and they were tasty! (I liked the actual beans less well, compared to haricots verts, but that's just me.) I'm hoping the hummingbirds will enjoy them as well.
