You appear to be posting from the University of Berlin in the eastern
part of Germany. It's possible that what you have is a bean that us UK
gardeners don't recognise.



I am in Hampshire UK. I use this server cos BT is pants.

BTW I found some good pictures at
http://worthgardens.homestead.com/2002_Hort.html which shows french beans as
being round as well as flat. The beans I got were from the HDRA and I think
this picture is making me think it was the french beans that made it.

Thanks for the help!
