These beans are different from the beans which we are going to grow in our garden. They belong to the Phaseolus family and are also called lentils in many parts of the world. French beans belong to this family. Also, there are the other beans, which come under the legume beans category. These green beans – legumes- are members of the Bean and Pea family (Leguminoseae). These can easily be grown in your garden to provide your family with lots of good, natural and nutritious food.
