Nzama Jugo Bean

Vigna subterranea


The Nzama Jugo bean is a very close relative to the Bambarra Nut. This variety is greatly loved in Malawi where it is extensively grown for both personal use, and is often sold on the roadsides or in informal markets to customers or travelers looking for a quick, tasty, high protein snack.

The growth of the Nzama Jugo bean replicates that of a peanut, where the self-fertilized flower literally 'plants itself' underground.

Drought resistant in the extreme, these beans will handsomly reward you for any extra care that you may give them.

The beans can be eaten in the immature stage or allowed to dry off properly, and then cooked in a variety of methods.


Approx 30 seeds
