Bean, Runner: Pink Half
Also known as Peanut Bean, the flavor differs greatly from the standard "green bean" flavor. Some describe it as tasting and looking like small peanuts. This beautiful bean can be eaten fresh as a snap bean, canned, or dried when mature. Pods start off green, then go to pink, and finally yellow or tan when completely dried.
Half Runner beans grow 3-5’ tall depending on climate, weather, and growing method. They are old-fashioned beans and are stringless when young.
