AnnualBroad Windsor fava beans are a robust, heirloom variety known for their large, flavorful seeds and sturdy growth. These bushy plants reach about 2-4 feet in height and thrive in cool weather, making them perfect for early spring or fall planting. The pods contain 5-6 large, creamy beans that are ideal for fresh eating, drying, or freezing. Broad Windsor favas are highly nutritious, rich in protein, fiber, and essential vitamins. The plants also improve soil health by fixing nitrogen. Easy to grow and harvest, these fava beans are a favorite among gardeners seeking a productive, versatile, and delicious crop.
MIgardener has never sold a bad seed! These charming beans germinated in time to get planted out before the ground froze so anticipating a healthy harvest in the spring!
Just directed sow will update soon
I love them, reminded me back home when I was a kid, my mother and I eating them on the spot while collecting them from the vine, having the salt shaker in our pocket and also collection the radishes as well

Awesome color on these. Beautiful addition to the (majority pink shades) zinnias I usually grow.
I have way more celery than I have room to plant!
Planted my basil as soon as thepackets arrived!
Last year I decided to plant a "tunnel" of sunflowers on the other side of my tall blueberry bushes and these added a colorful variety to the typical yellow! These are now a favorite that will be a "grow again!"
I received a packet of this mix with a previous greenstalk order through MIgardener (best price around!) and was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to grow and how delicious it was! I’ve never grown salad greens before and this was the perfect mix. Even after burning out on gardening late in the summer, I will always look forward to growing this salad green mix in the spring. Thanks for introducing me!
