- Product number: 041400
- Origin: Central and South America
- Latin: Phaseolus coccineus, also known as Phaseolus multiflorus
A very strong bean; use it as a windbreak for your regular green beans. Picked young, they are at least as tasty. If the beans hang longer, the individual beans (seeds) can be shelled. These are known as "potato beans". Due to the very large size of the white seeds, the appropriate regional name "farmer's toes" originated.
