AnnualCalypso bush bean, also known as Orca or Yin Yang bean, is an eye-catching heirloom variety prized for its striking black and white pattern resembling an orca whale. This compact, bushy plant matures in about 70-90 days, producing abundant pods filled with small, round beans. Known for their creamy texture and mild, nutty flavor, Calypso beans are excellent for soups, stews, and salads.
I love to share the gift of seeds with my community so I seized the opportunity with the awesome MIG seed catalog. Very pleased
The kids get very excited picking the dry "Orca beans" and I enjoy cooking them. They are relatively large and keep their fun coloring when cooked. Taste great in soup. Good yields grown in zone 6b.
Have grown these several times and they are always successful, dry well and taste great. Sometimes they look like yin and yang, sometimes like orca whales (that's the kid and grandma in me)
Such a unique bean!
Love these Calypso beans. Did very well, even when my flock of geese and chickens decimated the flowers multiple times. The snap beans were tasty….and the ugly, brown, shriveled husk was magical to crack open and reveal the most beautiful beans. We mixed our dried seed pods together and opened them at once. It was a fun surprise to see what color bean was going to be inside. Fun for the kids and adults alike. Thanks for another great seed that our family will keep in our garden for generations!
I had success last yr so im confident this yr about getting them started(:
I absolutely love growing this variety of Kale! It grows fast and tastes delicious! I use it in soups and to make Kale Chips!
I’ve purchased and planted seeds from several of the most popular seed companies. Even planted Miigardener seeds side by side with the others. The migardener seeds always germinate faster and the plants are bigger and healthier. Plus they are half the price. And that is the truth. I live in Michigan and have been gardening since 2020 and I recommend Migardener. For seeds and for planting education. Cathy W.
I grew kentucky wonder pole beans last year and they are excellent. Highly productive. All my seeds come from MIGardener
I've been growing a few years excellent germination
