Climbing beans

Charming climbers A tripod or obelisk covered with climbing beans makes a striking focal point for a border, or can be grown in a large tub. The scarlet flowers of these runner beans open over many weeks if the beans are regularly picked. [Pg.220]

Climbing beans "Scarlet runners," with their cheery red flowers, are the most widely recognized climbing bean, but there are others that are egually attractive this is Viola Cornetti, with purple stems, pinky mauve flowers, and deep purple edible pods. [Pg.242]

Tall plants like sweet corn, which initially cast little shade, can be undercropped with lower-growing plants like dwarf string beans, lettuce, or mizuna, or spreading vegetables such as zucchini and pumpkins, to make maximum use of space. Shade-tolerant vegetables like lettuce and spinach can be sown between rows of climbing beans. [Pg.259]

Erect supports for peas, climbing beans, and cordon tomatoes before you sow or plant. For climbing beans, make tepees of canes, or double rows of canes tied together at the top, with one plant at the base of each cane. The beans may need to be guided to their supports and tied in, but will then start to spiral up the canes unaided. Peas have tendrils that will cling to twiggy sticks or wide-mesh pea netting. [Pg.267]

CsHi.NOi, Mr 129.16, mp. 259-260°C (decomp.), -30.6° (HjO) monohydrochloride, mp. 256 -258°C (decomp.), [a] -10.3° (HjO). A non-proteinogenic amino acid in plants. Very widely distributed in plants, e. g., in apples, fruits of the date palm, hops, climbing beans Phaseolus vulgaris), white clover Trifolium repens). [Pg.496]

The earliest Mesa Verdeans, the Basket Makers, whose ancestors had been nomads, sought shelter from the dry plains in the cliff caves and became farmers. During growing seasons they climbed up toeholds cut in the cliffs and grew beans and squash on the green mesa above. Settling down also meant more time for crafts. They didn t make pottery yet but instead wove intricate... [Pg.266]

Leguminous plants An erect or climbing nitrogen-fixing bean or pea plant. [Pg.269]

Plant out the seedlings, one by each pole. String beans are not hardy and should be planted outside only when all risk of frost has passed. Tie the seedlings onto the poles as they climb. When each plant reaches the top of its support, pinch out the tips of the plant. [Pg.114]

Frankel et al. (1987) stored 800 g of soybean seeds at rewetted moistures of 13, 16, and 20% for 19—50 days at 4l°C. Soybeans at 13 and 16% initial moisture reached 4l-48°C while the 20% moisture soybeans reached 47-49°C. They found free fatty acids (FFA) climbed from 0.20% to about 1.25% for the 13% moisture soybeans in 49 days. For the 16% moisture soybeans, FFA elevated from 0.5% to about 2.0% in about 27 days. For the 20% moisture soybeans, FFA went from 0.6 to 2.3% in about 28 days. Phosphorus in crude oil before degumming from the 13% moisture-stored soybeans dropped from 1044 ppm to about 400 ppm during the 50-day period. For the 16% moisture beans, it dropped faster from 850 ppm to 0 in 27 days and for the 20% moisture beans, it dropped from 500 ppm to 0 in about 20 days. The reduction in phosphorus was explained by formation of nonhydratable phosphatides, which are made up of Ca and Mg salts of phosphatides (Frankel et al., 1987). They also scanned samples from 1100-2500 nm by using a computerized spectrophotometer, and when second derivatives were taken, they found absorption bands at 2260 nm (R = 0.86) and 1810 nm (R = —0.72) that were correlated to FFA. [Pg.166]

These climbing vines, which are tropical legumes, are grown mainly for their edible tubers. Hence, the various common names contain both the word bean and the names of other more popular tuberous plants. The major characteristics of P. erosus and P. tuberosus are very similar, except that the bean pods of the latter are not eaten because they have irritating hairs. Therefore, the name yam bean will be the sole designation used in the rest of this article. Fig. Y-1 shows a typical yam bean. [Pg.1154]

Yam beans, unlike many other tropical tubers, are grown from seeds. In the Orient, the young plants are trained to climb bamboo trellises. About 10 months are required for the production of mature tubers, which are harvested by... [Pg.1154]
