Phaseolus vulgaris

LIMITED STOCK!

Pinto Beans are the quintessential Mexican cooking bean. With their distinctive pattern they are hard to miss. These are outstanding soup beans and are heat and drought resistant, making them the ideal choice for growers in harsh environments.

The plants will benefit from staking as the bushes do have vining tendencies.


Standard packet contains approx. 10 seeds

There are no petite options available


Using Beanflo-Rhizobium bacteria when planting your bean seed is the most cost effective way of putting nitrogen fixing bacteria into your soil, creating healthier soil for a more productive harvest.

These beans have been excellent producers, and quick, too. They were subjected to my usual dry bush bean treatment (lack of treatment, really) - poked into the ground and then left to their own devices until the bushes are drying off when I pull them from the ground, allow them to dry out properly and then thresh and winnow.

Soup Pinto produced in just over 3 months, a performance as good as my trusty staple Hopi Black Beans! They hardly blinked at the rust that tried to menace them early in their growth and were champs in the face of a vicious snail infestation, still producing a handsome crop in such short time that I have time for a second planting before Winter.

Looking forward to a full-scale harvest next year, I will certainly be making these one of my staple self-sufficiency varieties.
