## Overview

Winged Bean Seeds (Psophocarpus tetragonolobus) produce vigorous 9-12' vines with edible pods, leaves, flowers, and tubers—all rich in protein. These heirloom, non-GMO seeds thrive in warm, sunny, well-drained soil and attract pollinators, making them a sustainable, space-efficient choice for gardeners aiming to cultivate a versatile tropical superfood with 80-100 days to maturity.

## Description

Cultivation: Prepare fertile, well-drained soil in a warm, sunny location. Seeds can be difficult to germinate. For better germination, pre-sprout seeds indoors by soaking in water for 24 hours until swollen and then keep at 77ºF until sprouted. Scarify seed coat for seeds not swollen and resoak. Plant when seeds sprout. Keep soil moist. Fertilize sparingly. Train to grow on a vertical support. Large vigorous vines can reach 9-12'. Harvest beans up to 3" in length.

- This Winged bean is grossly underutilized in much of the world. It has the potential to be prominent in food production when people recognize its great worth. This unassuming bean has similar high-protein content to the widely used soybean. Every part of the plant is high in protein; even the flowers can be up to 15%! Winged beans are originally tropical and thrive in regions with heavy rainfall, but can be adaptable to multiple climates.
- Marde Ross & Company has been a Licensed California Nursery since 1985.

### ⭐ Garbage from hell
*by D***B on December 6, 2025*

Not labeled when it came and nothing grew so…

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great germination
*by A***R on May 23, 2023*

I’m writing is after reading other reviews that said they had poor or no germination. I followed my normal process for germinating seeds and had 100% success. Soaked them overnight then left in damp paper towels for a few days in the shade and they all germinated relocated to the ground and kept it moist then they all popped up. Very happy so far.
