Hi all, I am looking for some unusual bean seeds. I already have borlotto, runner, purple, french etc. Just wondering if anybody has anything exciting they could spare? I am happy to swap, if I have anything you'd like!

If you are happy with just a few perhaps five or so of a few types  I can share some of mine with you, that should be enough to get you started then you can keep some seeds,sorry it's not much but  I don't have big numbers.

I have

Black Turtle
Cherokee Trail of tears
Papa de rola
Rams Horn
Mayflower
Chinese Red Noodle
Red Rice
Purple podded pole
Jacobs cattle
Taiwan Black
Pinto
Dutch Brown

I also have several types of cow peas but I have never  tried growing  them in the Uk . I am going to do so this year I hope.

Jeannine - The package arrived today! THankyou sooo much! So many varieties! Have planted up all the ones I can get an early crop from already! Can't wait to try them. Yours are packaged up and awaiting postage - but missed the post office, so will have to wait until Monday I'm afraid. Thanks again.

Sorry to join this thread a bit late knbsallotment, but I have a few Pea bean (Phaseolus aegypticus) seeds if you want. Not grown them before, but they look very attractive I must say.

Thankyou, but I think I already have some of those. (Can't quite remember!) Will have to have a rummage in my seed box and double check!

Hi

I have some white kidney beans given to me from someone on our allotment, you can have some of them if you want as I have a lot.
sorry I don't know their proper name or anything else about them tried to google them and looked on here but the search doesn't work very well on my computer.
