S'oam Pawi - Menager's Dam
Phaseolus acutifolius. Also called W'pegi bawi. A red-brown bean from Menagers Dam, a Tohono O'odham community near the Mexican Border. Large for a tepary. From our Seed-Bank Collection.
- Warm season planting
- Origin: Low Desert, 1968' elevation
- Habit: some twining but not a vigorous climber
- Bulk Size available, see below

*Tepary beans grow best in hot, dry regions with minimal water or irrigation. Overwatering (in any climate) will cause the plants to look very leafy and healthy, but they'll produce few, if any beans. If grown out of region, which is the desert Southwest, results may vary.
