DREAM BEANS

Broad beans can be found on just about every allotment site and in plenty of veg patches up and down the country. The easy-to-grow legume not only produces masses of beans, most also have fragrant flowers, and you’ll know that they give off a delightful aroma too!

Broad beans aren’t just easy to grow, they are really hardy too, with many varieties suitable to sow in October/November and surviving harsh winters without a problem. In fact, my ‘Superaguadulce’ have even frozen solid before, wilted - and then, as soon as the sun’s got back on them, they have perked right up again and been absolutely fine as if nothing has happened.
