Pinto

Phaseolus vulgaris

This open-pollinated bush bean is one of the most cultivated beans in the world. Growing to about 18" tall and 20" wide, these heavy producers contain 5-8 beans per pod. Best when harvested mature as dry beans, they're a staple in refried beans, chili and veggie burgers. Rich in fibre and protein, these powerhouse plants are also nitrogen-fixers for your soil.
