Bean 'Iroquois Skunk'

'Iroquois Skunk' is one of the most fascinating green beans I have grown. The flat pods have a velvety texture without strings, and they are delicious steamed. The seeds are beautifully patterned with black and white, and their creamy texture is great for soups. This triple-purpose bean is also good for shelling.

This wonderful heirloom comes from the Iroquois tribe of the Great Lakes region. It is shown alongside 'Tim's Black Ruffles' tomato.
