The Broad Windsor Fava Bean is an heirloom favourite that thrives in cooler climates, delivering a bountiful harvest of plump green pods. These beans not only add a delightful flavour to your meals but also enrich your garden by fixing nitrogen in the soil. Enjoy their lush foliage and watch them grow as they flourish under the sun!
Size: Plants reach approximately 18 to 24 in. high, producing long pods filled with large, tender beans.
Yield: Expect a prolific yield from each plant, with many pods that are easily harvested for fresh eating or cooking.
Taste: Rich, buttery flavour with a creamy texture when cooked, perfect for enhancing a variety of dishes.
How to use: Excellent for fresh eating, cooking, or making dips. Fava beans are delicious when shelled and sautéed with butter and spices.
Planting tips: Sow seeds 1 to 2 in. deep in well-drained soil. Space plants 12 to 15 in. apart, in full sun to partial shade. Fava beans prefer cooler temperatures for optimal growth.
Harvest tips: Pods are ready to pick when they are full but before they start to turn yellow. Remove pods carefully to keep the plant productive and encourage further growth.
Pelleted seed.

An absolute joke the size of the bag of beans for the price. I think there was about 15 beans in each bag! I cant foresee me buying anything from them again
