  • bean identification

    Hiya
    Is it possible to identify this climbing french bean as I've lost the label. I thought it might be Coco bicolour but it's not the same. It maybe one I've obtained from the HSL over the years.
    TIA

      Thanks Scarlet. They do look like them indeed! I've never had Inca before though, so maybe there is something else uff

        Monachelle di Trevio but I don't think HSL have ever had those

          Cheers Norfolkgrey. May not be from HSL. Monachelle di Treviso certainly look the same too. But i've never grown these either

            Are they definitely climbers, not dwarf? They look like Yin Yang beans.

              Root66 - I remember sending you some seeds from the VSP a couple of years ago. My memory's not good enough to remember what they were though! Maybe these came from there.

              Are Yin Yang beans black and white, not brown and white?

                How about Pea beans?

                  I think the pea bean is the same as Inca bean /Inca pea bean. It is one that HSL have had. Crap naming again.

                    These ones look black and white on my screen.

                      Thanks Bonjour, probably a bad photo, but yes they are maroon coloured rather than black

                        You are correct and well remembered , however i looked through the list and I didnt get these beans from you. It's not the end of the world. I just like to be very organised haha

                          It's unlikely that it's not either of those that have been mentioned - you don't get that many beans that look the same unless they have been renamed.

                            Yeah that'll do for me. I suspect the pods will look similar to eachother also.
