    Wonderful

    In 2022 we planted these in a 12 foot row and they clambered over a short trellis almost buckling it with thick vigorous vines of delicate little bean leaves. We collected tons of dried beans that Fall. This year I didn't directly plant them but some volunteer seedlings came up and shared a spot with our sweet potatoes. Going to plant some in 2024.

    We gave up

    The first try did not produce any beans. We figured that the cement nearby was cooking them to death. The second try, we moved away from the cement. We followed all of the directions from Native Seeds and other research that we did. These died. We are very puzzled as to why our most native Sonoran Desert crop failed to thrive. If anyone can offer some help, it would be greatly appreciated.
