Scientific Name: Psophocarpus tetragonolobus

Winged Bean, also known as Asparagus Pea, Winged Pea, Four-Angled Bean, Manila Bean (Sigarilyas), Princess Bean, and Dragon Bean, is a highly versatile tropical plant. Almost every part is edible:

  • The beans are used as a vegetable.
  • The leaves can be cooked like spinach.
  • The roots resemble potatoes in texture and taste.
  • The dried seeds can be ground into flour.

Cultivation Instructions

  • Soil Preparation: Use fertile, well-drained soil in a warm, sunny location.
  • Germination Tips: Winged Bean seeds can be challenging to germinate. To improve success:
    • Pre-soak seeds in water for 24 hours until swollen.
    • Keep at a 77°F temperature for sprouting.
    • If seeds don’t swell, scarify (gently scratch the seed coat) and re-soak.
    • Plant once sprouted.
  • Growing Conditions: Maintain moist soil and fertilize sparingly.
  • Support & Training: Use a vertical trellis or support, as vines grow 9-12 feet.
  • Harvesting: Pick pods when they reach up to 3 inches in length.
