First attempt at growing chinese yard long beans (asparagus beans). I just noticed that I had this one today. This was grown with no fertilizer or special care, other than throwing down Espoma Garden-Tone at the beginning of the season. This bean is 29 inches long. I'm not sure if it's still growing. Seeds came from http://evergreenseeds.com/ I bought the "extra long" variety http://evergreenseeds.com/orexlon.html
