Hyacinth Bean Flowering Vine 3-pack
SCIENTIFIC NAME:
Dolichos lablab
VARIETY:
“Ruby Moon”. Also known as Vaal Bean and Lablab. This plant originated in subtropical Africa and Asia, and is grown as an annual in temperate climates. We trialed this climbing vine on a trellis against a southern-facing wall of our house, and it thrived. Offering sweet, tender edible blooms in hues of lilac and rose, this plant is a new garden favorite. Perfect purple accent for fresh or dried bouquets, this climber is perfect for your full-sun patio, growing up your southern-facing porch, or on an arbor. Sold in sets of 3. Seed source: saved on-farm from 2024
POLLINATORS:
Bees, butterflies, native wasps, and moths
CULTURE:
As a bean family plant, it fixes nitrogen in the soil. It needs well-draining soil and again, full-sun. Can grow up to 20 ft. long, and requires support of a trellis. Harvest the flowers as they open, or the immature pods for color. The seeds are really beautiful and easy to save for following seasons when you harvest the pods dry and mature.
