Broad Bean 'Bunyards Exhibition' produces long pods containing an average of 6 to 8 beans per pod. This variety has an excellent flavour and is ideal for freezing. Height: 120cm (47"). Spread: 45cm (18").
Direct sow broad bean seed under cloches in February, or without protection from March to April. For particularly early crops some varieties of broad beans may also be sown outdoors under cloches from early autumn to late winter.
Grow beans in full sun on rich fertile, well manured soil with protection from strong winds. Plant broad beans in double rows set 23cm (9") apart and allowing at least 60cm (24") between each double row.
