Black Turtle Bush Bean – Saanich Organics

Phaseolus vulgaris

This shiny, small jet-black bean has a dense, “meaty” texture and is very flavourful and nutritious. It’s the all-star ingredient in traditional dishes from many cultures around the world.

A high yielding, disease-resistant and hardy variety. Compact bush plants grow to about 18″. Trellising is not required but light support can help with harvest and prevent damage caused if pods lie on wet ground.
