The last few years, I have been on this amazing journey of buying plants and starting new plants from seeds or pits (Avacados). With each success of beginning new plant life, leads to more and more plant purchases and seeds. I am definitely not complaining. When I saw this plant, I knew I needed to give it a try. I cannot believe how fast these seeds started to grow. I mean in less than a week. I started 3 different pots to see which setting they liked best. They thrived in all settings: full sun, partial sun, and almost shaded. These seeds will fill your plant addiction. I still have seeds to plant!! I cannot wait to see the bloom.

Here's why these seeds deserve a glowing review: 1. Abundant Seeds: The pack contains a generous 100 seeds, ensuring I have plenty to sow and share with fellow garden enthusiasts. 2. Stunning Climber: The Dolichos Lablab vine is a fast-growing climber that reaches up to 96 inches in height. Its deep green foliage with a hint of purple adds elegance to any garden. 3. Bi-Colored Flowers: Come mid-summer, the vine bursts into bloom with purple and white bi-colored flowers. These fragrant blossoms attract delightful visitors like butterflies and hummingbirds. 4. Electric-Purple Seed Pods: As if the flowers weren't enough, the striking electric-purple seed pods steal the show. They add visual interest and make for great conversation starters. 5. Perennial Potential: In USDA zones 9 - 11, this vine can be a perennial, gracing your garden year after year. For other zones, it grows as an annual climber. Planting Tips: - Preparation: Some gardeners recommend nicking the Hyacinth Bean seeds with a knife and soaking them in water for 24 hours before sowing. - Timing: Plant the seeds directly outdoors once the danger of frost has passed. - Attract Wildlife: Not only do these seeds create a beautiful display, but they also attract butterflies and hummingbirds.

I was a little hesitant ordering seeds from Amazon, but these were definitely the exact seeds I ordered. These are SO easy to grow and these particular seeds grew super FAST as soon as I planted them! Literally in a few short days after planting, they sprouted & have just taken off & are growing crazy fast still! Getting ready to have my first flowers bloom here shortly & can't wait to see the purple pods! Butterflies, Hummingbirds and Bumble Bees LOVE the flowers! These are great climbers - I have them along my patio fence. They are super easy to grow & maintain - the only thing you will want to make sure you do is have things for the vines to climb at varying intervals, so the vines don't wrap around eachother into 1 big 'rope' of vines. Highly recommend for anyone - super easy to grow & an absolute beauty with delicate flowers that are multi shades of purple and the bright purple seed pods look like big fat sugar snap peapods! I get compliments all the time from my neighbors, friends, folks passing by.... Tip: when the peapods are fully grown and dying off, save the pods, pop out the seeds and store the seeds over the winter to plant next year. Drop the seeds in the ground, cover, water & enjoy these beauties again next year! This particular variety I bought this time have red veins on the underside of the leaves & they are so lovely!

I have grown purple hyacinth beans successfully for years, so I am very familiar with proper germination techniques. Unfortunately, this batch appears to be entirely non-viable. I attempted multiple standard methods: starting in cells, planting in pots, soaking and not soaking the seeds, and carefully managing conditions. Not a single seed germinated. Given my experience, this is not user error—it strongly indicates a defective or improperly stored batch. Equally concerning is the complete lack of customer support. The Amazon listing provides no valid website or contact information for the seller. This leaves buyers with no reasonable way to resolve issues or request replacements. Products like seeds are inherently time-sensitive, and selling non-viable stock without support is unacceptable. I would expect the seller to stand behind their product and provide a fresh, viable batch. Until that happens, buyers should proceed with caution.

Plants germinated and grew very healthy but no purple flowers. I know it is the plant because of the shape of the leaves and it is a vine . Just no flowers 😟

Love this plant! Had seeds saved from years past but the last of them didn't grow so ordered these. Planted a few days ago & today they are already 2-3" talk & leafed out! They do grow quickly so can't wait til they weave around my arbor & get to blooming!! ❤️❤️🥰

Plant these if you want free food, free mulch, and free compost forever. Healthy plants will shade out anything you plant them near. Fresh leaves smell and taste great. Eat the leaves raw, or cook them like any other green. The kinda hairy texture persists even after cooking, but the taste is worth it. IMO growing them for beans isn't really worth it, but the flowers are pretty. Remember that they're light-sensitive - they'll only start blooming once the days start shortening again, or unless you stress them out. Also, continuously trimming them keeps them in regrowth mode - they'll keep focusing on new growth instead of reproducing. So if you want it to flower, leave it alone. If you want free salad, mulch and compost all spring, summer and fall then trim away.
