Description

This is the fastest maturing variety of any broad bean and an early spring sowing will out yield all others. Up to 34 good pods per plant! It is also winter hardy, outstanding for deep freeze as it does not discolour and probably for the same reason is particularly tender and tasty. It replaces Imperial Green Windsor over which it is a considerable improvement.

Sowing Instructions

Sowing time:Outdoors in late winter to early spring as soon as soil is workable as pods must mature in cool weather.
Sowing depth:5cm (2in) deep 23cm (9in) apart in double rows 9in apart with approx. 60cm (24in) between each pair of rows.

Growing Instructions

If you can remember, when they flower take off the top shoots to induce early and bigger crops and surprise your friends and neighbors.
