The listing, Beans, Clover, Okra & Gourds...Oh My! has ended.
Yard Long Beans/20-Yardlong Bean, also called Chinese Long Bean, is a vigorous climbing annual and the plant begins to produce long pods, ranging from 14 to 30 inches, 60 days after sowing.
Crimson Clover/ 1/4 tsp-Crimson clover is one of the best plants you can grow in a vegetable garden, even though it will not ever cross your plate. Why? Because crimson clover is a cover crop--a plant grown over the winter to help suppress weeds, prevent erosion and build healthier soil. Cover crops are also known as "green manures" because they add valuable organic matter and nutrients to the soil. Crimson clover is an excellent cover crop because it helps fix nitrogen into the soil and its beautiful maroon flowers lure beneficial insects into the garden in spring.
Burgundy Okra/ 1/2 tsp-60 days — The plants are attractive and under optimum conditions, reach four to five feet in height. Produces good yields of burgundy colored pods, that are tender to about six inches, on plants with burgundy stems and leaf ribs.
Apple Gourds/10-The 8-inch fruit look just like giant apples! Very popular as crafts and fall displays; can be painted red or made into birdhouses. Unique and fun to grow; a sure sell at fall markets.
