The Oriental Yard Long pole bean, also known as the asparagus bean or Chinese long bean, is a unique and highly productive variety known for its extraordinary length. These slender, tender pods can grow up to 18-36 inches long, maturing in about 60-80 days. The beans are crisp and flavorful, making them ideal for stir-fries, salads, and pickling. This vigorous climber thrives in warm climates, requiring support such as trellises or poles. Regular harvesting encourages continuous production.
Great tasting beans and the Mexican bean beetle does not infect them
I had great luck with these over the summer. They are nice long beans that grow three to a stem. Keep an eye on them they grow pretty fast once they begin.
I forgot that I was going to try these and planted them as a second crop of beans this summer. So far, I am impressed with the size of the beans and crunchy sweetness. Will definitely grow more next year!
The majority of the beans have sprouted. I have grown this variety bean for three years now mainly to eat fresh. They truly can grow to be a yard long and produce two long beans together!! They need a support and can get stringy as they get mature, so you just have to watch and pick them every 2-3 days. Since they are an heirloom variety, you can save seed each year. They are good for fresh and frozen. They aren't big producers so I don't get enough to can, but they are good for canning, too.
