Just wanted to let you all know that my Purple Hyacinth bean plants in one of my pots did not die. I pulled all the others out thinking they were annual. I guess in this climate they may live a little longer, mine are coming back and have leaves. Makes me wish that I had not yanked the others out.
Did you save any of the seeds? They are so easy to germinate here. I save them every year and start new babies the next year!
Here are some hiding behind a moonflower!
Hi Brinda, They didn't have time to form seeds here, first it was too hot, then the cold got the few pods it did make. I have a friend that lives about 15 miles from me and I gave her some pots with seedlings last year, and hers gave her tons of seeds.. and are also coming back.
this year I started over with more seedlings, hopefully I will get some seeds this season.
I have the same problem. They need such a long growing season to set seed here.
The first year I grew them I had a lot of seed pods form and then the seeds dried and it worked out really well. The second and third season I grew them the seeds didn't have time to mature before the frost hit. I usually have beginners luck and then no luck after that! LOL.
