Ruby Moon Hyacinth Bean Vine
25 Seeds
(Dolichos lablab) Vigorous, 10-15' vines produce an abundance of beautiful, violet colored flowers that mature into glossy, deep-purple pods filled with small, black seeds. Dark purple stems and leaf veins set against dark green foliage make this variety a stunning ornamental, perfect for growing on trellises, fences, and poles. Although beans are grown for food in some parts of the world, we recommend this variety solely for ornamental use as the seeds and pods are poisonous at certain stages. Perennial in zones 9-10. Grown as an annual elsewhere. Blooms mid-summer though fall. 25 seeds per packet.
CULTURE: After danger of frost has passed, sow seeds 1/2" deep, 4-6" apart along a trellis or other support structure. Thin to one plant every 12-18" after germination has occurred (7-10 days). Plants prefer full sun and average moisture.
