Tale of Three Beans



Above is a picture of my bean bed. On the right I planted Anasazi bush beans, in the middle I planted Dry Soup Tiger's Eye Bush Beans, and on the left I planted a green bush bean: Fagiolo Nano La Victoire. The Anasazi Indians used to live in places like southern Colorado, so theoretically, this bean is a native. The Tiger's Eye Bean is a beautiful heirloom from either Chile or Argentina. The Fagiolo Nano La Victoire is a french bush bean - although sold through an Italian seed company... Clearly, in this little plot, the native has out germinated and looks the most vigorous. Hmmm...
