The Story
The snake bean is a favourite for warm and tropical areas, and now you can grow your own with Mr Fothergill’s. Also known as the asparagus bean or yardlong bean, this excellent variety produces abundant crops of long, rounded pods which are stringless and delicious to eat.Â
Snake bean seeds grow fast, especially in hot weather - so choose a hot, sheltered spot and you’ll have plenty of tasty pods ready to harvest in no time. In the right conditions, these striking pods can grow up to 75cm (29.5”) long! Pick them when they’re young and slender and they’ll have a lovely crisp texture, perfect for eating fresh or adding to stir-fries, curries, and stews.

Plant Height: 2-3m

Pair these delicious bean seeds with other crops from our vegetable seeds collection, such as our spring vegetable seeds or Asian greens seeds for a diverse and thriving garden.
