Aquadulce Claudia Broad Bean Seeds

[80 days] Truly one of Britain’s finest over-wintering broad beans, autumn-sown Aquadulce Claudia will produce a crop a whole month earlier than spring-sown varieties. It establishes itself quickly in the fall and produces numerous, well-filled pods of tender white beans in the spring. In fact, this bean actually needs cool weather to perform at its best. Even so, if you don’t get around to planting in the autumn or winter, this versatile bean can also be spring-sown for a decent crop in the summer.

Great for freezing, fresh shelled beans or dried beans.

Requires Support.
