Phaseolus vulgaris 'Malawi green dry beans', a gift from Max Nunziata, another seed freak in Italy. They apparently were taken to Africa by German colonizers in the 1800s when they were known as "malachite beans". These came to me yesterday with the tricky name of "mboubo". #Phaseolus #malachitebeans #beautifulbeans #maxnunziata #seedcollectors #italiangardeners #phaseolusvulgaris #lamacchinafissa (presso La Macchina Fissa) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bw2Y2TaBGoK/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=kgwox45b1bbt
