Purple Podded Pole Bean is a vigorous climbing heirloom variety that produces abundant, striking deep purple pods that turn green when cooked. The crisp, tender beans have a delicious flavour and are perfect for fresh eating, steaming, stir-fries, or freezing. Regular harvesting encourages continuous production over a long season.
This easy-to-grow bean thrives in full sun and fertile, well-drained soil. Provide a trellis, fence, or other support for the vines to climb. Sow seeds directly into the garden after the last frost when the soil has warmed. Keep the soil consistently moist and harvest pods while they are young and tender for the best flavour.
