Vigna, Black-Eyed Peas (Pole) 'Yard Long' Heirloom
- Sun Preference
- Full-Sun
Description
Yard long features vigorous vines that climb like pole beans and produce extra long pods. In warm, humid areas the tender pods can grow up to 3′ long. In shorter season areas they commonly grow to over 1′. Cook like green beans or stir fry.
Plant outdoors in full sun in late spring after soil has completely warmed. May take two to three months for plants to flower, but once blossom production begins plants will produce prolifically. Flourishes in heat and humidity. Harvest pods just as they begin to fill out or are about 1' long.
Vigna unguiculata
