LILAC

Lilac, also known as the Purple Queen, is a delicacy variety of asparagus bean with high sugar content. Its dark purple pods have a delicate taste and meaty texture, making this product particularly attractive to lovers of fresh vegetables and home cooking. The bushes of this variety are compact and low, reaching only 25-30 cm in height, which facilitates care and harvest collection.

The plant is suitable for growing both in open ground and under film coverings, which expands the possibilities of its cultivation in various climatic conditions. For optimal growth, it is recommended to use additional support, as the bean has long pods. The variety is distinguished by resistance to fungal and viral diseases, which reduces the risk of crop losses and the need for the use of chemical protective means.

Lilac asparagus bean is versatile in use: its pods can be consumed fresh, as well as used for stewing, frying, boiling, canning, and freezing. Thanks to its taste qualities and ease of preparation, this bean variety will be an excellent choice for various dishes and preserving vitamins for the winter.
