Hyacinth Bean ‘Ruby Moon’ Seeds Namibia

Hyacinth Bean ‘Ruby Moon’ is a dramatic cut flower and foliage plant for gardeners who love rich colour, bold texture, and something a little different in the cutting garden. This vigorous climber produces deep wine-coloured flowers followed by long stems covered in glossy plum seedpods, all set against striking dark foliage. It is a beautiful and unusual addition to bouquets, and its rich colouring pairs beautifully with almost any palette.
