Flageolet beans
Flageolet beans are a variety of haricot beans originally developed in France in the 18th century. The beans, known as flageolet vert or green flageolet, were first identified by a French grower named 'Chervier' near the Paris suburb.
Flageolet is unique by its smaller than any other kidney beans and of an attractive mint-green color, a rare trait among bean germplasms. Fresh green seeds are obtained from harvesting well-filled pods but just short of maturity.
Botanical name: Phaseolus vulgaris L. (Flageolet Group). Family: Fabaceae, and the genus: Vigna. Common names: Green flageolets, Haricot flageolet à grain vert (French), and Verdina or Faba do Marisco (Spanish).
