Hopi Purple String Bean Seeds: Organic Heirloom Bush Bean

These organic heirloom bush beans trace back over a thousand years to ancestral Pueblo cultures, known in Hopi as "Maawiw'ngwu." Each packet contains 25+ seeds of the rare Rio Zape variety, recognizable by their striking purple pods striped with black crescents. Harvest young for tender green beans or let them mature and dry for storage—a practical choice for home gardeners seeking seeds with deep cultural roots and reliable yields across most climates.
