They do turn (mostly) green when you coo them, but the kids still think they're super interesting, which is a win.

My gf grows these in our garden. They do turn green when cooked, they also turn the water you boil them in blue.

I read that as "lets you grow intestine things" and from the picture I didn't even doubt it

Looks like the Scarlet Emperor Pole Beans that I grew last year. Not the tastiest but by far the prettiest bean I've ever grown.

I bought the seeds at pine tree, they call them Purple Pod Pole Bean.

They're pretty tall and beat my Kentucky pole beans to production.

Look like flamingo heads in the thumbnail.

I had a few of those from the garden in a pan with green beans and I was quite surprised when I looked back and they were all green.
