80 days - Phaseolus acutifolius. Drought adapted landrace variety native to northern Mexico with 18” tall, semi-vining plants that produce pink flowers and green pods that dry to a buff color. Pods contain 5-6 small black beans. Leaves of this species are smaller than typical P.vulgaris species leaves which may contribute to it’s drought adaptation. Irrigated tend to yield substantially more than unirrigated plants.
