Description

Semi-leafless pith pea. Excellent taste. Relatively long (about 12 cm/4.7 in) and wide pods with about 10 aromatic-sweet grains. Robust, healthy growth. Strong tendril formation provides natural hold, which is why Grandera does not need a climbing aid. Tolerant to wilt disease (Fusarium race 1+2). (From Kiepenkerl)

Non hybrid

Not frost resistant
