Description
Puff bean crimson is a red-flowered, rather small vegetable bean. Its red flowers make it an ornament in the garden. The beans have a good taste. They are cooked without the pod and go well with tomato, bell pepper, onion, squash and mushrooms. Due to the rather small growth puff bean usually does not require support.
