How to Grow:

Direct sow after your last frost once soil temperatures are consistently warm. Plant in full sun and well-drained soil. Provide a sturdy trellis, fence, arch, or stakes at planting time to support climbing vines.

Keep soil evenly moist during germination. Once established, water deeply and consistently, especially during flowering and pod development. Most varieties begin producing in approximately 55–75 days, depending on conditions. Harvest frequently to encourage continued flowering and pod set throughout the season.

Harvest & Use:

Pick pods young for crisp, tender snap beans. Allow some pods to mature for shelling or dry bean storage if desired. Yard Long beans are especially well-suited for stir fries and quick sautés. Scarlet Emperor runner beans provide ornamental value with bright red blossoms that attract pollinators before forming edible pods.
