If you like mangetout then these are the beans for you. So tender and sweet when young, the whole pod can be eaten - mangetout style!

Broad Bean Stereo produces masses of pods so there will be plenty left to enjoy in the normal way.

The pods have an upright growing habit for easy picking.

Live on Isle of Skye and recommend these. They cope with strong wind and wet weather. Still come up trumps! Excellent for freezing.
