Our friends at Adaptive Seeds, our source for these seeds, describe this multipurpose bean as follows: "Beautiful green speckled purple pods are small but also taste good as a snap bean. Small, round, lavender-speckled brown dry beans are so beautiful they’re like jewels. Early and productive. Delicious and very tolerant of cool maritime weather." Adaptive received this bean from Keith Parkins on their initial Seed Ambassadors trip to England in 2007. "He told us this type of bean, locally known as 'Polish Beans,' had been grown in allotment gardens in his village of Broughton Astley for over 40 years."
