Pretty bean from an instagram account I follow

Looks a lot like my Chickasaw except for the blue in some of the beans. Maybe someone got a hold of Chickasaw and it got crossed with some bean.

That's exactly what I thought @Blue-Jay, your Chickasaw is the most similar bean I could think of to this one. She called it 'Salome's Treasure'. It's almost reminds me of a rainbow. Researching it I I wonder if the name is a Biblical reference.

Did the original seed you received look like your grown out seed. Was it a semi runner or bush growth. Email me the growers name and address. I would like out of curiosity to see if I had ever shipped this person beans.

Trying to unriddle a Mombecher Speck mystery. My plants gave me 2 pod types which looked like 2 different varieties - 5 inch pods and 8 inch pods. They were both green podded and white seeded, but I could tell that they were each very uniform to those lengths. I typically find the AI search engine really good, but it is not coming through for me in this quest. Does anyone know which is the real one? I'm only getting an answer of 25 cm and neither of my pods were that long. The bean packets with images of the Mombacher Speck don't look that long either?

The name is Mombacher Speck. And yes 25cm Max is the quoted length. That fits much better with your 8 inch version.
