Perennial Tropical Lima Bean is a versatile legume used in soups, stews, and salads, valued for its rich protein content and creamy texture. It is a climbing vine that can reach up to 10-15 feet, making it ideal for food forests where it can provide vertical growth and enhance soil fertility through nitrogen fixation. For cultivation, plant in well-draining soil with full sun, provide trellising for support, and ensure regular watering, thriving best in warm, tropical climates.
