Can anyone identify this legume?
I realize it’s not a lot to go off of
One of my plant apps thinks it might be Mucuna pruriens, but I grew that last season and the seeds were very different in appearance. Though if I remember right the hilum was similarly pronounced
The Mucuna looks to have a distinctively ridged pod.
I was wondering if it was some kind of red kidney bean. More straight than kidney shaped though.
Maybe it’s time to just plant these and figure it out then. I was initially worried it might end up being a shrub or tree I didn’t want as the stem is pretty woody, but I can just put them somewhere I won’t lose track of them
I look forward to seeing what they turn out to be.
They remind me of a Vigna species, perhaps in subgenus ceratrotopsis? Seed Hilums are a good way to ID species/genus
