Small Mexican Red Beans (Phaseolus vulgaris), also known as Habichuelas or Habas Pequenos Colorados, are a variety of bush beans with a deep brick red color and a firm texture. These beans are plump, round, and measure about 1/2 inch long, making them easily recognizable. With their mild flavor, they are perfect for a wide range of dishes, especially those with hearty, savory bases.
While small red beans are commonly used in Southern cuisine, they have also gained popularity in various global dishes, such as chili, rice and beans, and stews. They hold their shape well after cooking, making them ideal for dishes where the beans need to maintain their structure and not break apart.
Planting Time:
These beans should be planted after the danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed up to about 70°F (21°C).
Spacing:
Space seeds about 2-3 inches apart within the row and ensure that the rows are 12-18 inches apart for adequate airflow and plant growth.
Planting Depth:
Plant the seeds at a depth of 1-1.5 inches in well-drained, fertile soil.
Watering:
Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Beans prefer consistent moisture, especially when they are in the flowering and pod-forming stages.
Sunlight:
These beans thrive in full sun and need at least 6 hours of direct sunlight each day to grow properly.
Soil:
Beans grow best in slightly acidic to neutral soil (pH 6.0-7.0). They prefer loamy soil rich in organic matter, which helps improve drainage and soil fertility.
Care:
Beans are relatively low-maintenance once planted. However, keep an eye out for pests like aphids or fungal diseases, which can affect the plants.
To improve soil quality, you can add compost or aged manure before planting.
Days to Maturity:
Small Mexican Red Beans typically mature in about 50-60 days after planting, depending on weather conditions and soil quality.
Harvest when the pods are fully developed and dry to the touch. Beans should rattle inside the pods when fully mature.
Harvesting Method:
Gently pull the plants from the ground or cut the bean plants at the base. After harvesting, allow the pods to dry in a warm, well-ventilated space before removing the beans from the pods.
Culinary:
Small Mexican Red Beans are especially famous in Southern dishes, such as red beans and rice. They are also used in chili, soups, and stews.
Their mild flavor and firm texture allow them to complement a wide variety of seasonings, from smoky to spicy.
Nutritional Benefits:
Beans, including these red beans, are an excellent source of protein, fiber, and various vitamins and minerals such as iron and folate. They are a perfect addition to a healthy, balanced diet.
Whether you’re looking to grow beans for your home garden or for culinary use, Small Mexican Red Beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) offer a flavorful and versatile option.
