Bobby beans

Italian flat beans? Anyway, that's what we always called them.

Flat beans are called "Romano beans."

Haven't heard that name, I suspect that's a US name only. All I know is they aren't hairy like other
french beans. Unfortunately I probably need to know the latin name because I want the seeds to grow
some. They are much nicer than any other green bean I've eaten.
