Definitions
  • Common bean is the common name of Phaseolus vulgaris. It is a herbaceous annual plant grown worldwide for its edible dry seeds or unripe fruit. The main categories of common beans are dry beans (seeds harvested at complete maturity), snap beans (tender pods with reduced fibre harvested before the seed development phase) and shell (shelled) beans (seeds harvested at physiological maturity). Its leaf is also occasionally used as a vegetable and the straw as fodder. See more...
