Green beans
Green beans are the unripened fruit of the leguminous plant Phaseolus vulgaris, also known as the common bean. The look of this fruit varies due to the crosses between the different varieties of plants and the conditions they are grown in. Currently, we can find various shapes (flat or round) and colours (purple, green, mottled or a whitish colour).
