Certified ExpertA.Back off the fertilizer if you are using it. There may be excess nitrogen. Also, they don't usually bloom till late in the season, so as soon as the weather cools a bit, they should burst into color. Here is general care info:

Certified ExpertA.Plant hyacinth bean once all threats of frost have passed. This is variable from year to year, but they can be started indoors to speed things up until ready to plant.

Certified ExpertA.They like to be planted where they will remain for their short life. They do not transplant well. I would recommend starting a new seed in the other area that you want it to grow.

Zone 7Q.Tiny Bugs All Over Hyacinth Bean Vine Pods And Stems
It's the end of the season and I'm anxiously awaiting the maturation of the pods to harvest for next season, and I noticed that most of the pods and a lot of the vine stems are covered with tiny, mite-sized bugs - should I be concerned and take any action?

Certified ExpertA.It could be aphids or spider mites (but you probably can't see the spider mites). I would first try spraying them with water and see if they fall off. My experience with aphids is they just move out of the spray. I will get a paper towel and carefully wipe them off. Neem oil should help, too.

October 28, 2020A.Great advice - I sprayed the plant with cold water on the strongest setting and that removed them! Glad I didn't need to use any pesticides or chemicals.

Certified ExpertA.You can cut it down and save the seed pods to grow next year. The pods should be ripe about the time of the first frost.
