I think my heart would flutter, too, if I heard that sound :) That would be a really fun bean to grow. I think the kids would like it. They would think it is the coolest thing to have a garden full of rattlesnake beans! The Anasazi beans were really similar to pintos, too. No kidding!

Actually they look a lot like pintos, they are a variety of pinto. The name actually comes from the sound they make in their dried shells. I have been out in the garden and everything was quiet... hot and quiet...... and suddenly one of those pods will snap a little and the beans will rattle around in it and for a brief moment my heart flutters. :lol: Most people pick them when they are young and tender. Like most beans they are delicious fresh, but I always let some dry on the plants in late summer and that's why they are hanging around out there in the garden making snake noises. ;) Well, I’ve lived a long time, its about time I started getting interesting, don’t you think?;)

We also grew some beans called rattlesnake beans ! Guess what they looked like :lol: I really like to grow and use heirloom and ancient varieties of vegetables. In many cases, they are very much different from our newer varieties. Let us know how you liked your beans!

You'll have to tell us how they taste. Tracy I have seen these beans from time to time at the farmers market and wondered about them. You’ll have to tell us how they taste.
