Lablab ‘Ruby Moon’ 4G

Botanical Interests' Hyacinth Bean Ruby Moon Seeds (Lablab purpureus) produce striking 1″ pinkish-purple flowers that bloom in loose clusters, followed by glossy, dark purple pods 3″–5″ long. Known for its ornamental beauty, this perennial (often grown as an annual) thrives in full sun to partial shade and quickly climbs fences, trellises, or spills over containers. Its vibrant purple and green foliage creates an eye-catching display in gardens, and it’s drought-tolerant, making it easy to maintain. Though not edible due to its toxic properties, the Hyacinth Bean adds an enchanting element to your landscape.
