18 years ago

Early to mid,I'm looking for the name and a supplier which would carry them now,I really want them again!!!I got them from Pinetree Seeds,they told me that they don't keep records of the seeds that they've carried,maybe somebody was havin' a bad day,whatever-HERE'S a description of the bean-bush-greenish,but coppery at the same time and kind of irredescant!!

Was this a bean with no fuzz on it, for eating raw? I remember that Pinetree carried one, which I believe was developed by Professor Meader. Can't remember the name. I couldn't get it to grown here.
