Ayocote Morado bean, also known as Purple Runner bean, is a stunning heirloom variety prized for its vibrant purple color and robust flavor. Native to Mexico, this climbing bean produces large, hearty beans perfect for stews, soups, and salads. The plants are vigorous climbers, reaching up to 12 feet, and thrive in well-drained soil with full sun exposure. Maturing in about 90-100 days, Ayocote Morado beans are celebrated for their high protein content and rich, meaty texture.
Seeds came in a timely manner, I can’t wait till spring to plant all of my seeds
I like trying to grow this bean to share with my dad who grew up eating this bean in his youth in Mexico. I live in south Texas and it grows best for me during the fall as it does not like our warm springs and summer.
So I took the decision of buying another packet to try them out this season!
Can't wait to try them ! You always put more seeds than what's written on your packages and that's a plus ! Thank you !
Here’s what happened when I planted there beans. They grew and grew AND grew! Beautiful red flowers … which I love for the bees and hummingbirds. I planted my whole pkg 10 seeds. I think I planted them a little late… the plants were still at least twelve feet tall with tons of flowers… but I didn’t get hardly beans that were ready when the frost came. I ended up with 16 seeds. I will definitely plants these again but I will get them in the ground much earlier. I have one question…The seed packet says maturing in 90-100 days and the plant attributes says matures in 65 days. … big difference. I love this company and bought almost all of my seeds from Ml
My only complaint is that I was not prepared for how well and fast all of the seeds would grow soI had to pot up earlier than expected! I am very happy with all of the seeds I have purchased from here!
I think I got near perfect germination on these. Cauliflower has always been challenging for me to time it out and know when to harvest. I've been learning that crops that have purple or reds in them (looking at my red lettuce varieties and purple sprouting broccoli) seem to bolt less quickly than their green counterparts in heat.
I have been buying seeds from you for the last 3 years. They germinate very well, and have produced the best gardens I have ever had. I just got my order for this year started in my greenhouse. For the first time I opened a packet of All Seasons Cabbage and there were no seeds in it. the rest of the order is doing great. The price of the seeds also good.

This is my first year growing straw flower. The germination rate is fantastic and you get so many seeds. Can't wait till they can moved outdoors and bloom in my purple flower bed.
Everything but the royal paste sprouted. Sometimes that happens. Will place another order for fall planting.
