How to Grow
in a sunny site with fertile well worked organic soil, sow seeds in successive crops every two weeks from early April to mid-May as long as weather remains cool. A late summer/fall crop is possible in some areas. Seed typically sprouts in 7 to 14 days.

COMMENTS: Keep plants evenly watered for best quality pods. As pods mature, pick daily to encourage continued production. Avoid using high nitrogen fertilizer. The large white flowers are quite ornamental.
