Like other Italian beans, the pods are flattened in shape. 'Borlotto' pods are pale-green in color, mottled with rosy-red. The beans are best harvested when they are about five inches long at the young, tender stage, just as the seeds start to swell in the pods.
The seeds are a creamy-tan color mottled with maroon. Each ounce is approximately 40 seeds.
