Phaseolus vulgaris
Days to Maturity: 90
Anasazi Beans were found in Ancestral Puebloan ruins in the Four Corners area estimated to be 800 years old and still germinated! Delightfully speckled, prolific bush beans. Easy to grow. Meaty, substantial flavor in soups, burritos, as refried beans and more. Many say--and we agree-- that their flavor is superior to Pintos.
Planting instructions: Sow Anasazi Bean seeds 3-5" apart outdoors after all danger of frost has passed. No need to trellis Anasazi Beans.
Seed Saving Instructions: Allow Anasazi Bean pods to fully dry on the vine. Pick dried pods into a bin and crush to dislodge beans. Store beans in a paper or mesh bag to ensure they dry fully and remain dry.
