I've always wondered. There's a company that sells Italian seeds, I've seen them all the years I've been gardening, quite common on the racks in spring. Many of them have 'marconi' in the name somewhere.
I noticed that you're offering one of these beans too @Blue-Jay. Oh Yes Super Marconi !
Oh, and the bush bean in your collection @Blue-Jay called 'Vodenjak 1' has a really neat translation in English, it means 'water spirit' or 'water man'. Love that name! That's really a cool name. I like the translation.

And three more network beans.

Amber Queen - Robert Lobitz bush bean.

Purple Rain - another Robert Lobitz, very tall bush bean. As @flowerbug wrote earlier, the seeds are smaller than Chaska Purple, but their quantity is much greater.

Gvnagei - Cherokee pole bean. One of two native beans from Kris Hubbard's collection that I have. I'm stubbornly hunting for more. I have many more of his tomatoes.
