No, my purple beans were bush beans and they are called Royal
Burgundy.
I grew a purple pole bean but the name escapes me at the moment. They
weren't striped though. Solid purple, easy to pick and prolific.
I liked the bush bean better but both were good.
I've grown Kentucky Wonders and I like those. It's just that so many
people sold them at the market that I went for something different so I wasn't
competing on exactly the same type of bean.
At that time... I other vendors were selling their beans at under $1/
lb. I sold my purple beans for $1.50/lb. As long as I sold what I
brought to the market, I was happy for that.
The other "bean" I like very well is southern butter beans. I have no
idea what varieties I grew because my father-in-law from Mississippi gave me the
seed. Delicious though and I had no trouble selling them. No one
else grew them or sold them at our market.
