Genetic mutant: Zero Stars. This one and the other I bought, Winged Bean, were absolutely not the plant as described. This Red Noodle Long Bean went in looking like the bean it should, after growing a long time and about 4-5 feet high, leaves were a bean leaf, finally, a plant that took forever but the result was a FUZZY pod containing 2 what appeared to be flat soy beans. Wow, really? Yes, really. Shipped from Hong Kong it must have been a genetic experiment and the joke was on me. I'm not laughing. EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED is an understatement. Never Again. Winged Bean came out looking like Dragons Tongue Bean but went in round beans like it should. Sounds impossible but true. Did not plant anything else. They were on a patio in pots. An entire growing season wasted. Will keep my money in the USA from now on with reputable sellers. I tried adding a picture to the winged bean review and the entire thing disappeared so who knows if that review will even show up. Had another to add, closer up, did not take a photo of this mutant. Time waster in Hong King, laughing all the way to the bank. I've been too angry until now, January 2019, to write this review from the Summer - Fall of 2018.
