Phaseolus vulgaris 'Yard Long Bean'

Bean, Yard Long

An extra-long yard long bean growing up to 30 inches with an early maturity. The plants are vigorous and highly productive. Beans are dark green color and crisp. For best flavor and tenderness, harvest when pods are 15–20 inches long. Frequent harvesting (every 2–3 days) encourages more production. Often used in Asian cuisine, they are excellent in stir-fries because they remain crisp when cooked.
