I think they would grow well for you. they are from the mountains in central America but also are known to be grown commercially in north Africa and Greece according to wiki.
never know til you try. They are very ornamental as well as edible.
I have also grown a Dutch variety with white seed and white blooms. very similar.

If I run across some I am going to give them a try anyway.
It wont be the first time I grew something I wasn't supposed to be able to grow.
I still have a volunteer pinto bean plant growing in the yard.
