Adzuki Beans

I have some adzuki beans that are a couple of years old. I bought them at the grocery store in a bag for eating. I am thinking of trying to grow some in the garden. Will try to sprout some indoors first. My question is are adzuki beans a bush bean or a pole bean? I am thinking bush bean since they are sold commercially.

Sorry ghayes

My google search shows that some adzuki beans are bush and others vine.

"While vining beans are grown accross South Asia (China, India, Taiwan and Thailand), bush or erect plant types are grown in both Northern Japan and the upper Midwest."

Also check this link Adzuki, where they show the plants are indeterminate, but 18 to 24 inches high.

I would say grow them on a corner square or two and be prepared with a trellis for just in case
