Bean Seeds - Bush - Fava - Broad Windsor
Description
A centuries-old English heirloom, Broad Windsor is one of the most prized fava beans for its large pods, rich flavor, and reliable yields. The sturdy, upright plants grow 36–48 inches tall, producing thick pods up to 8 inches long, each filled with 4–6 broad, pale green beans of exceptional size and taste.
Renowned for their buttery, nut-like flavor, these beans are delicious fresh, dried, or frozen, and can be enjoyed in soups, stews, or as tender young beans sautéed with herbs and olive oil. When left to mature, they dry beautifully for long-term storage and protein-rich winter meals.
Believed to have been cultivated in Britain since the 13th century, Broad Windsor remains the gold standard among fava beans for cool-weather production. Its combination of cold hardiness, superior flavor, and nitrogen-fixing ability makes it a cornerstone for sustainable gardeners and chefs seeking traditional European flavor at its finest.
