This is a broad bean that's best for an autumn sowing. It establishes itself very quickly
and will produce a very early crop. Aquadulce has white seeds and the pods are very
long. The Royal Horticultural Society has given it its Award of Garden Merit (AGM).
First introduced in 1884 this is probably one of the most reliable varieties there is,
producing heavy crops of 7" - 8" long pods that usually contain 8 or 9 white beans.
The beans have a lovely sweet flavour which is maintained even if frozen.
Recommended by the RHS to be an excellent attractant and nectar source for bees
and other beneficial insects.
An established heritage green-seeded variety with arguably the best flavour of all.
Heavy cropper of short pods which hold 6-8 beans each.
An excellent early cropping, bushy dwarf variety (12-18 in high) producing small, but
deliciously tender beans. Successional sowings from autumn or late winter/early
spring in the open. Ideal for the exposed windy garden.
Matures early and is productive over a long season. For fresh use or freezing. Pods
are fleshy, meaty, stringless, fibreless and snap cleanly.
A decorative climbing vine, once grown for its flowers and is still useful for covering
arches and pillars, as well as traditional bamboo cane rows and wigwams.
Achievement is a traditional old variety, not stringless but very heavy-yielding. The
Royal Horticultural Society has given it its prestigious Award of Garden Merit.
