Jade, Bush Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris)
Like the gem it is named for, this exquisite bean is a lush green. The plants are strong and erect and typically do not need staking. Beans can be harvested at any point in the development without sacrificing color or flavor. We always plant some Jade as an interesting counterpoint to the lighter shaded beans. Grow in light, well-drained soil and provide adequate, even moisture, especially at the flowering time.
