Adzuki Beans
Regular price $3.00/
The adzuki bean is a Japanese favorite that can be grown for use as a dried bean, enjoyed fresh in its green pod, or even as a crunchy, nutritious sprout. The plant itself looks similar to a field pea or cowpea and grows 1 to 2 feet tall, producing yellow flowers followed by clusters of cylinder-shaped pods that hold the red to orange beans. As an annual vegetable, adzuki can be grown in any climate zone that has enough frost-free days for the plant to produce edible pods, about two weeks after flowers appear.
Approx. 16 seeds/Pkg.
A longer season -- 90 to 120 days -- is required to harvest the beans for dry use.
