KACANG UCI : FIRST TRIAL

This is for the first time I grow Kacang Uci or rice bean (Vigna umbellata).



This is the new plant for me.
I have never grown this plant before.



A rare plant, an old fashion plant.
I got the seed from online nursery last year. 



Wikipedia said that both of the young tender pods and leaves are edible.
But this plant is mostly grown for its seeds.



A unique pods...



I really want to know when is the best time to harvest the fresh pods.
And also I have no idea how to cook them.



About five months we have waited the vine producing fresh pods.
Very long time, we only saw very lush leaves, but no flower even more pods.
But now, we can find lots of beautiful yellow flowers and little slim pods.



Beautiful flowers...



So lovely...
Thanks GOD...
