Castor bean is a fast-growing, dramatic ornamental plant known for its huge tropical-looking leaves, bold stems, and unusual spiny seed pods. Plants can grow 6–10 feet tall or more in a single season, making them a striking choice for the back of a garden, along fences, or as a living privacy screen.

Plant outdoors after all danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed. Soaking the seeds for 12–24 hours before planting can help speed germination. Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil and give plants plenty of room to grow.

Days to Maturity: Approximately 90–120 days to mature seed pods, depending on variety, temperatures, and growing conditions.

Planting Depth: 1–1½ inches
Spacing: 3–5 feet apart
Sun: Full sun
Height: Approximately 6–10+ feet
Annual: Grown as an annual in areas with freezing winters

15 seeds to a pack. These seeds were grown here on our homestead.

Important Safety Information: Castor bean seeds contain ricin and are highly toxic if chewed or swallowed. Keep seeds and plants away from children, pets, and livestock. Wear gloves when handling seeds and seed pods, and do not use any part of the plant for food.
