Pinto Bean (Bush)

This variety is one of the most commonly used beans in Mexican cuisine. The dried brown speckled beans turn a uniform brown color once cooked. This variety is easy to grow and harvest. With a shelf life of five years (once dried), this variety is the perfect choice for your edible garden. Can be treated as a bush or pole variety, depending on the space available in your garden. Harvest when bean pods are dry, but before they split open.
