How to grow Bean 'Jade'

  • Full Sun

  • Medium

A full sun position will ensure your plant thrives and remember to water moderately. Jade is generally regarded as a tender plant, so it is really important to plant out well after your last frost date. Jade needs a soil ph of 6.0 to 6.8 (weakly acidic soil).

Growing Jade from seed

Sow at a depth of approx. 1.95 inches (5.0 cm) and aim for a distance of at least 3.9 inches (10.0 cm) between Bean plants. For optimal germination, soil temperature should be a minimum of 16°C / 61°F.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Jade about 14 days after your last frost date.

Transplanting Jade

Jade is tender, so ensure you wait until all danger of frost has passed in your area before considering planting outside.
