The Quirky, Productive Bean You'll Love

Green Noodle Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) is a wonderfully unusual climbing bean that produces extraordinarily long, slender pods — sometimes reaching 40–60 cm — that hang in dramatic cascades from the vine. Also known as yard-long style beans, they're tender, flavoursome, and incredibly productive. A real talking point in the garden and a delight in the kitchen, especially in stir-fries and Asian-inspired dishes. If you've never grown noodle beans before, prepare to be amazed.

What Kind of Bean Is This?

  • 💚 Extra-long green pods — slender, noodle-like pods that can reach 40–60 cm in length.
  • 🌿 Climbing variety — vigorous climber; needs a trellis, teepee, or fence for support.
  • ✂️ Tender pods — best harvested young for the most tender texture and flavour.

Why Gardeners Love It

  • 💚 Extraordinary long pods — dramatic, noodle-like pods make harvesting a delight and the garden look spectacular
  • 🫘 Incredibly productive — generous crops of pods over an extended harvest season
  • 🌿 Vigorous climbing habit — makes excellent use of vertical space; perfect for trellises, teepees, and fences
  • 🍽️ Excellent flavour — tender pods with great flavour; wonderful in stir-fries and Asian-inspired dishes
  • ☀️ Easy to grow — fast-germinating and low-maintenance
  • ✂️ Pick and it keeps producing — regular harvesting encourages continuous cropping right through summer

Growing Tips for New Zealand

Sow direct from October onwards once the soil has warmed to at least 16°C. Sow seeds 3–4 cm deep, 15–20 cm apart, at the base of your support structure. Provide a sturdy trellis, teepee, or fence as plants are vigorous climbers. Water regularly, especially once flowering begins, and harvest pods young for the best texture. Keep picking to encourage continuous cropping. Avoid overhead watering to reduce the risk of fungal issues. Performs beautifully in all regions of New Zealand through the summer months.
