{"product_id":"050610","title":"Sword Beans, White","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis tropical bean is also called Jackbean (after the fairy tale Jack and the Beanstalk) and is especially well-known in Brazil. The pure white seeds have an elongated, grey-black hilum, which is characteristic of this genus. First, there is an enormous growth spurt of the beautiful, fast-growing climbing plant, and in late summer, the wonderful lilac flowers give rise to huge pods 25-30 cm long and 2 cm wide. These can be harvested young and eaten pod and all; when riper or fully ripe, you eat the seeds. Make sure to cook them for a while, as you would with dried beans. In a heated greenhouse, the plant can overwinter, so growing it in a large container will provide years of enjoyment!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- SEARCH-NAMES-START --\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNames:\u003cbr\u003e\nLatin: Canavalia ensiformis\u003cbr\u003e\nDutch: Zwaardbonen\u003cbr\u003e\nAlso known as: Jackboon\u003cbr\u003e\nEnglish: Sword Jackbean\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- SEARCH-NAMES-END --\u003e","brand":"Vreeken","offers":[{"title":"5 seeds","offer_id":44176184279093,"sku":"050610","price":4.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0606\/9092\/3573\/files\/050610.jpg?v=1750783684","url":"https:\/\/www.vreeken.nl\/en\/products\/050610","provider":"Vreeken's Zaden","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
