Climbing bean – Organic
4.49$
The climbing bean, also called the bracteate amphicarp, is a fascinating fabaceae that grows naturally in central and eastern North America. This climbing plant is distinguished by its dual seed production: suspended aerial pods that contain seeds (inedible) and underground seeds that resemble peas (edible). In addition to its culinary interest, it plays a valuable ecological role by enriching the soil with nitrogen thanks to its symbiotic fixation capacity.
Perfect for enriching a forest garden or experimenting with permaculture, it adapts well to shaded and humid environments. A great discovery for biodiversity enthusiasts!
At Jardins de l'écomène, we offer both aerial seeds of this rustic and little-known plant and underground seeds. If you want to obtain the peas (underground part), you can order them here.
