What Makes Survival Garden Seeds Different - non-GMO heirloom seeds

Asparagus Yardlong Bean, (Vigna Unguiculata ssp. Sesquipedalis), is an exotic cowpea variety that produces pods that can be up to a meter long, living up to its name. This pole bean thrives in full sun and warm climates, making it an excellent choice for outdoor summer gardens. Asparagus beans can be used fresh, dried for later use, canned or frozen to add to your emergency food supplies.

  • Prolific Growth - Asparagus Yardlong Bean grows very quickly. This early maturing, heat and drought-resistant pole bean produces slender, elongated pods reaching up to a yard long. These green Asian vining plants can be grown in-ground or in containers, but require the support of a trellis, fence, or poles for climbing
  • Versatile Crop - Asparagus beans are delicious and absorb flavors well during cooking. Use them in your favorite Asian dishes, stir fries or salads. Traditionally, this veggie is popular in Filipino and Thai cuisine, adding a fresh, green element to any dish.
