This year I planted edamame beans and what with a whole lot going on they got past me- first year I have planted them. I decided I would just let them mature for dry beans and use them in soups etc. They are tough to shell right now. I don’t know about later when they are dryer.
I planted some yellow wax beans also but we had a hard rain and they all washed out except two plants which have provided me with several beans for picking and eating in the garden while working with the other stuff I planted. I have no idea where the seeds washed to, they certainly did not come up anywhere else.
You have planted a wider variety of beans than I have I thoroughly enjoy the catalog from The Vermont Bean whatever with all the choices for heirloom beans. jacob’s Cattle is one of my favorites.
I would like to try the Jacob’s Cattle beans. Are they string beans or do you dry them?
