🍔 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.
🟡 Beautiful white and yellow camellia-like flowers look like 'fried eggs' when they drop off and fall on the ground with their yellow stamens facing upwards.
🟡 Flowers are honey-sweet fragrant and attract butterflies and bees.
