@heirloomgal Yes, this is the bean I sent you. Wachtelbohne aus Unterfranken is the full name of this variety.

I also say "hello" in a new thread. I read the list of beans to renew. I have seeds of a few of them so I will be able to plant reserve varieties. Just in case.

During my Christmas vacation I managed to take some more pics of beans from 2022. Tarahumara Dark Purple - pole.This year I sowed seeds harvested in 2021 and the beans grew great. The vast majority of the pods dried on the bushes. The color of the seeds is also better than in the previous...

@heirloomgal if you are interested in Italian beans check out this link https://www.legumichepassione.com/litalia-dei-legumi.html This is, in my opinion, the best site for traditional Italian varieties. You will find here not only beans, but also other legumes. Just click on the selected map...

@Bluejay77 do you have a list of beans grown by Ernest B. Dana?

Yes, I am interested in Kodiak Pinto bean. Unfortunately, Annapolis Seeds no longer ships outside of Canada.

@heirloomgal, will you be ordering seeds from Annapolis Seeds?

@flowerbug, so this variant can be described as Spotted Pheasant, right?

The Flowerbugs continue :) Yed - semi runner. Very original seeds. I have never seen the colors red and yellow so interpenetrating each other. I managed to collect a decent amount of seeds. I have many more than in the photo. Some of them are less photogenic, but suitable for sowing. They were...

@Bluejay77, my Bubblegum pods didn't have a uniform bright pink color, although the more ripe they were, the more pink there was. I still have a few seeds from the ones you sent me so I will plant them again sometime, but certainly not next year. This is probably not a stable bean yet and...

Intentional marketing can actually make a fuss about the names of the beans. An example from Poland. One of the seed companies introduced the Pantera variety for sale. This bean won a gold medal at the Polagra agricultural fair in 2001 and has since been sold under the name Goldpantera. :)...

@Bluejay77 as compensation, I can send other beans that were on this year's renewal list. I planted them from my own seeds, just in case. Hidatsa Shield Figure - pole Cranberry Flieder - pole Tuvagliedda Rossa - pole Kilham Goose - semi runner. Last year I wrote that I could grow...

I've shelled all the pods, so I can do a little network recap now. Again, I won't be able to return Pink Tip Greasy, Fox Family Greasy, Mother Earth, and the other 30 Jack In The Beanstalk seeds. These beans were grown in a place that was exposed to the scorching sun and heat up to 35 C all...

@jbosmith , I've never tried canning beans this way. Can you write how you do it?

I was also looking for more information on this bean but with no luck. I have Halbhohe Reiser seeds from Swiss Zollinger Bio and there is not much information on their website.

@BeanieQueen, You don't know because the correct name for this bean is Halbhohe Reiser. I may have mislabeled it when I sent the seeds to @heirloomgal . I've been having problems with my account for some time. I can log in but can't do anything else. Supposedly because e-mails sent to me by...

@Bluejay77, don't be angry, but I would like to correct this. The description you gave is for a different bean. Independence Bean is another name for Polska Fasola z Orzełkiem / Polish Bean with Eagle. The colors of this bean are our national colors, and the mark around the eye resembles the...

@Decoy1, Apart from Bis, I know three Polish bush wax beans with Romano pods: Wstęga, Tytania and Mamutina. I also grew the Italian Supernano Giallo, but this bean grew more like a semi runner. I also have seeds of probably the Dutch variety Odir, but I have not grown it yet.

Thanks to Flowerbug's kindness, I was able to grow four of his beans this year. Here are two of them. Red Ryder - I had 9 plants, 8 grew as a bush and one as a semi runner. The shape and color of the seeds are identical. I will leave the bush version for the future. Sunset - bush bean. Very...

More beans from 2022. Bis - bush wax, Romano type pods. Polish commercial variety introduced by the PlantiCo company, entered in the national variety register in 2005. Over time, the spot around the eye turns brown, but freezing stops the process. Frauenbohne - tricolor bush bean. I only...
