Recognized for its brilliant scarlet flowers, a favorite of hummingbirds, this bean produces 8-12 inch pods containing beautifully mottled reddish-purple beans. With historical roots tracing back to the Hopi Indians, some varieties may have been cultivated by the Aztecs. Harvest these versatile beans as snap beans when pods are small, or use them as green shelly or dried beans, each offering a unique culinary experience. Dried beans from the Runner Bean possess a delightful nut-like flavor.
