Black Soy Bean is a productive heirloom variety producing striking black seeds with a creamy white interior. The upright bush plants grow to around 1 metre tall and yield heavily with pods that dry naturally on the plant. Black soy beans have a rich, slightly sweeter flavour than yellow soy beans and can be cooked in much the same way as other dried beans. They are excellent in soups, stews, curries, salads and grain bowls, and are also traditionally used in East Asian cuisine. As a legume, soy beans also help improve soil fertility by fixing nitrogen.
Approximately 5–7 seeds per gram
Approximately 15 seeds per packet
When to Plant (Australia)
Tropics: April to August (dry season)
Subtropics: September to January
Mild climates: October to December
Cold climates: Spring after frost
Planting / Sowing
Direct sow seed 30–40 mm deep into warm, well-drained soil in a sunny position after the danger of frost has passed. Space plants 15–20 cm apart with rows 50–75 cm apart. Keep well watered during flowering and pod development. Allow pods to mature and dry on the plant before harvesting the beans for storage. Dried beans require soaking before cooking and should be cooked thoroughly before eating.
Due to quarantine restrictions, TAS has an 800g limit per each seed variety and WA has a 10,000 seeds limit per variety.

FLOWER SEEDS WITH EDEN
Flower seeds: As fellow gardening enthusiasts we share the love for planting and nurturing our own flowers in addition to our veggie gardens. Our carefully selected range of flower seeds, available for convenient online purchase, holds a special place in our hearts. Like the endangered vegetables we've championed, these flower varieties face the risk of vanishing forever. Some of these older strains are incredibly rare, and it's a source of immense pride for us to offer and deliver these precious flower seeds Australia-wide.
