Partridge eye lentils

After a careful selection of seeds, our company has selected this particular variety of lentils.

Lentils are the seeds of a seedling annual herb native to Asia and the Mediterranean, belonging to the family Papilionaceae. Their botanical name “lens” comes from the shape of the lens to suit. The fruit is a pod containing two or three short rectangular shaped seeds lenticular, flattened and vary in color from yellow to green to brown.
