Thanks for your suggestion, Ray,it sounds like it
could one of a few, so far I have had suggestions of Madagasca,Sword and Poor
Man as well, as beans grow rather vigorously in the tropics it's hard to tell,
I might send him some of all the seeds and see how he goes!!!
Thanks for your feed back

for these Seeds!!
Hi,
The description sounds a bit like like a lima type bean,
though with white seeds it's not the Madagascar bean. Was it the pods that
were eaten? If so, then it's probably not a lima as their pods are quite
fibrous. How about Dolichos lablab?
