The unusual purple-red color of this yard long bean is best known in southern China. The beans can grow up to 22" long. The plant is heat tolerant and grows vigorously. The bean will loose its red color when cooked. These beans are stringless, sweet and tender. Cut into 2" sections and deep fry, stir-fry, steam or add to soup or add uncooked to salads.

This bean is also a favorite of Tony & Mary Ann Manasseri.
