Adzuki bean is a warm-season annual crop best suited to full sun and well-drained, moderately fertile soil. Sow seeds directly outdoors after the last frost and water regularly to maintain even soil moisture throughout the growing season. This compact legume also fixes nitrogen in the soil, making it a great companion plant in the vegetable garden.
