They have been known to produce a crop from a single storm runoff. Extremely drought tolerant. These beans are mostly pale tan and slightly mottled.  Very productive at our Conservation Farm in Patagonia, AZ.  From our Seed-Bank Collection.

Very happy with Lettuce Mix

Very happy with seeds, service, prompt receipt of seeds. I had some seeds fail to germinate but that was user error. I have not yet received pinacate seeds.

Pinacate Beans

I planted the pinacate beans as soon as I received them, and they germinated well. I wanted to experiment with native plants, planted outdoors without benefit of any planter boxes, nor organics, save worm castings. The germination was a success for the most part, and they appear to be thriving here in Cochise County, (elevation approx 4500 ft). Will amend this review after harvest.
