Product description

The velvet bean is a climbing plant that grows up to 25 meters high by climbing in other trees. The purple/yellow flowers are magnificent and hang down in large clusters up to 35 cm directly from the stem. After flowering large pods up to 30 cm start to appear. In temperate climates the velvet bean can be grown indoors or in a heated greenhouse, but also as an annual in a cold greenhouse at a minimum of 5 to 10 degC. By pruning the plant and navigating it for example along a rope or rack, the size can be controlled.
