    Planted sword beans in a container with a cage. The plants spread out, but I trimmed them to keep them small. Only got 4 pods, but the sight of those large beans was amazing. Unfortunately, the plant died in winter.

  2. Ishaq Khan

    Germination was good, and just one plant yielded a bumper harvest. Planted near my guava tree, it rapidly spread and covered the tree. Planning to create a structure for it next season.

  3. Pakhi Parmar

    It was a joy to witness the surprise on visitors’ faces as they encountered these impressive beans growing in my garden.

    Quick delivery, and I got some freebies seeds as well! Sword beans are a rare find in most gardens due to their size.
