Sources and commentaries
Beans may be named according to many criteria: growth type (bush / climbing) or product: young pods (French bean, wax bean), form and colour of seed (kidney, pea), popping seeds (pop bean). Most popular names are limited to one or the other use, and it is difficult to assign them to a particular group.
