Tiger’s Eye shelling beans are known for their beautifully patterned seeds or beans contained within the bean pods of the plant which when mature, replicates its namesake. Pods can be harvested when young and used as a snap bean when pods are tender and pale green to yellow in color. If allowed to mature the pods will turn to a dusty yellow hue and swell from the mature beans contained inside. Beans when fresh are a creamy white with swirls of cranberry red.
