Welcome to NGA, @byulasfjazz !

Most beans look pretty similar when they are growing; and, even more definitive than a photo of the "green beans" would be if you could let some pods fully mature (don't pick them off, just leave them on the plant until they turn brown and dry) and then post a photo of the dried bean seeds from the pod. However, there are many varieties that have white seeds, brown seeds, etc.; it would be helpful if you could narrow it down a bit, such as whether it is a bush bean, a pole bean, a bean that is usually used as snap beans or one that is usually used as dried beans, etc. However, since this was apparently just a "hodgepodge" of seeds that were planted, how important is it that you identify this bean variety? Pretty much any ID that we can give you is going to be a guess, I'm afraid.
