Ken is popping some broad bean seeds in the ground and he hopes to get an early spring crop. The variety he is using can stand the cold conditions across the British winter and with temperatures somewhat changing, now is an ideal time to grow these beans.

Have you grown broad beans during the winter season before? >> Post below and tell us about your experience.

Ken says broad bean variety ‘Super Aquadulce’ was grown by his father and is always a good choice of seed to plant. Look out for Blackfly in the spring and act fast to remove any clusters of the pest to prevent it from spreading.

Buy broad bean seeds from Kings Seeds UK.
