Mbombo bean is a wonderful heirloom from Kenya, Africa. The 5" green pods have an old-fashioned bean flavor that we love.
They quickly mature into dry beans in beautiful shades of green. Perfect for soups and stews. The semi-pole vines grow 5-6' tall and require some support.
Mbombo is one of the most productive pole beans. Also known as Mbombo Green bean. It is named after the creator god of the African Kuba tribe.
