These delicious drying beans do indeed look like tiny round orca whales! They are also known as Calypso or Yin-Yang beans and originate from the Carribean. These beans can also be eaten fresh when the pods are young and tender. The plant is perfectly suited to drying- its sturdy bushes hold the pods aloft and well spaced to prevent any mould or rot during drying, and pods split open and spill the beans quickly and easily when shelling. Enjoy the unique treat of your own homegrown beans next winter.

Grown organically with love and tenderness in the Bruce Peninsula, Ontario, Canada, in the summer of 2022. Germination tested. Minimum 30 beans.
