Has anyone grown lablab successfully? I sowed mine in late February,
and they sat doing nothing until June, and then started growing
vigorously. But no flowers yet, and it's getting late.
They grow well in the greenhouse. I've got one this year, a volunteer,
and it's covered with flowers.
Too lazy to Google........what is lablab?
It's another bean, Dolichos lablab. Leaves rather like purplish french
bean leaves, flowers like purple runner bean flowers, and big flat pods.
I've not grown it for eating (it is very decorative), but I think it's
one of the beans that you have to make sure you cook before eating.
