These are grown by my friend Jenelle of Nanoose Creek Farmhouse.

This Rose Bean is a prolific producer of both green beans and dried beans. It's a semi-vine, so mostly grows as a bush but grows some longer vines as well. Plants will benefit from a low trellis or stakes.

The dried beans have a background of light or dark rosy pink, with light pink speckles.

We can't find much info about this bean other than the description from Russ Crow's 'A Bean Collector's Window':
"Bush/Dry Early and productive. 85 days to first dry 4-5.5 inch pods. Original bean named and introduced through the Seed Savers Exchange by the late Robert Lobitz of Paynesville, Minnesota around 2001."

Growing Instructions

Direct sow 1" deep mid-May to late July in southwest BC after all danger of frost has passed about 4" apart. Provide a low trellis or poles for the short vines to grow up. Harvest the green beans when young, or wait until the pods dry down for dry beans. Can be grown in containers.
