Bean Seeds - Bush - Calypso / Ying-Yang Beans
A visual marvel as much as a culinary delight, Calypso, also known as Ying-Yang Bean, bears seeds marked in perfect black and white halves—each like a painted symbol of balance. Compact, bushy plants grow 16–20 inches tall and produce high yields of 4–5 inch pods filled with plump, glossy beans.
The flavor is smooth and mild, with a creamy texture when cooked, making it excellent for soups, stews, and baked bean dishes. Each bean holds its striking pattern even after cooking, adding both nourishment and beauty to the table.
An heirloom with Caribbean and Central American roots, Calypso was prized by early growers for its dependable yields, drought tolerance, and storability. Its unique appearance and adaptability have made it a favorite among seedkeepers seeking both aesthetic and practical value in their harvest.
