Hello Jackie,
As you can see from the other replies to your post there are many types of beans hailing from Portugal. Many of them are Common Beans varieties. I traded via Seed Saver Exchange for one actually called "Portuguese Bean" and have grown it several years here in the extreme NW of Washington State, USA. I am fond of it but only grow it every few years as I have many others to maintain and they all need take their turn. I believe it might grow anywhere in the US that Common Beans will grow.
It would help to know generally where are you located in case one bean would be better than another.
That said, which Portuguese been were you looking for?
