'Silver Moon' White Hyacinth Bean, is a tender perennial, usually grown as an annual, offering midsummer to mid-fall interest. Blooming continuously, the ornamental vine flowers in showy, sweet pea-like white blooms, followed in late summer by 2- to 4-inch, flat green seed pods. Borne in elongated clusters on long, erect flower spikes, the fragrant blooms attract bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds and make excellent cut flowers.

This tropical herbaceous plant has a twining, vining habit of attractive trifoliate, egg-shaped leaves and a fast growth rate, rapidly reaching 20 feet in a season, easily covering trellises, walls, or fences. Mature vines need sturdy support. 'Silver Moon' White Hyacinth Bean can also be grown in a container or grown as a groundcover.

Easy to grow and low maintenance, 'Silver Moon' White Hyacinth Bean prefers full sun and light, moist, well-drained soil but tolerates dry soil and drought, once established. It grows especially well in hot, humid climates.

Sow 'Silver Moon' White Hyacinth Bean Seeds directly in the garden in spring after the threat of frost has passed or start seeds indoors 6 to 8 weeks before transplanting.
