The Oriental Yard Long Bean produces pods that can grow to be anywhere from one to three feet long. Each plant grows in a unique way, making them fascinating to watch! Yard-long beans have a taste similar to that of a green bean, and the pods cook very quickly due to their shape. They require support from a fence or pole so that their vines can grow up and provide the room necessary for the pods to grow to their full size and weight.

Field Notes:

Growing Tips

• Start by sowing the seeds one to two inches deep, with a space of three to four inches between plants.
• The Yard Long can tolerate acidic soils and will require full sun.
• Water them often so that they don't wilt in the sun.
• Due to the the nature of a vine, a support, such as a trellis, will be needed.
• Pods grow long and slightly heavy, so they will need a strong support.

Harvesting

• The pods take two to three months to reach maturity, at which point they should be anywhere from one to three feet long. 
• Once pods begin to reach this size, they should be harvested each day to encourage production on the vine.
