🍔 Hamburger Bean: how to cover a fence fast with an exotic vine: Jade Vine here.

🟡 Mucuna sloanei - Yellow Jade Vine or Hamburger Bean. You saw the Sea-Green Jade vine in our earlier post. This one is lemon yellow.

🟡 It is much more hardier than the Sea-Green variety and is super fast growing!

🟡 This is a high-climbing woody vine native to rain forests of South America.

🟡 It has long, rope-like stalks hanging below the forest canopy where night-flying bats can easily access the fragrant blossoms.

🟡 The name Brown Hamburger Bean is because of the beautiful seeds (looking like little hamburgers) that are often collected and polished by natives and made into lovely necklaces and bracelets.
