This is one question I had to throw out when I compared my fieldwork

to Guy Lowman's because it became clear that terms I'd collected,

which were often things like

bush bean

pole bean

half-runners

(and which I assumed referred to the way they grow for all 3)

were not on the same order of categorization as

snap bean

string bean

green bean
