Every plant produces slender, dark green pods containing 10-20 seeds. These sweet, crunchy pods are stunningly stingless and special. Legumes are a definitive source of calcium and iron and add nitrogen to the soil. They are tall climbing plants with a life span of less than a year. Many pollinators, such as ants attract the plant. Long Beans take a longer time to mature.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cb\u003e \u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\" data-mce-style=\"text-decoration:
