Bean Purple King SEEDS – Phaseolus vulgaris – Climbing Beans – Heirloom & Untreated
Non-GMO, open-pollinated, not chemically treated heirloom seeds. Purple King variety is a heavy-producing, climbing (requires trellis) purple-colored bean that turns green during cooking. Beans are rich in vitamins A, C, K, antioxidants, and fiber. Very easy to grow in a warm and hot climate. Freshly harvested beans have a delicious buttery taste when cooked. It is not recommended to eat raw beans. Dried seeds can be cooked the same way as other legumes.
The price is for 16 seeds.
Planting and growing tips: Placing the seeds in water for 24 hours before putting them into the soil will speed up the germination process. The Purple King bean is an easy-to-grow plant, that loves the sun and moderate watering, however, the better the soil, the quicker and better it will grow. It doesn’t like to sit in water so a well-drained position is best. All our edibles grow happily and quickly in slightly raised garden beds.
