Kahnawake Mohawk Bean

(Phaseolus vulgaris); Heirloom; a Great Lakes Region variety; Pole bean; Dry bean; Minimum 20 seeds

Beige with chocolate streaks, the sumptuously chubby oval seeds of this Iroquois heirloom are richly sweet pantry dry beans. Vigorous vines are productive and disease resistant. Typically used dry, the plump green beans are delicious snap beans when eaten young. Pods constrict slightly around their fat seeds as they dry. Kahnawake Mohawk beans are another regional pole bean well worth the space on your trellises.
