I love purple beans, although I am new to them. I tried them for the first time this year and I just have to figure out a way to find room to grow some next year. They were so tasty and mild. And I just bought them because they were some strange looking.

The only thing that bummed me out was that they turned green when they were cooked. But they still have a distinct taste.

What purple bean did you grow? Where did you get it?

I got them from Johnny's Selected Seeds (mail-order), but I forget the variety. HopeHoops Oct 2012 #3
