‘Ratio’ Broad Bean

A fantstic new variety which we are really excited to have again; it has short plants about 2ft tall, with finely cut quite pointy leaves. It makes huge pods, and the beans are excellent eating quality even raw straight from the plant. 

This variety was selected in The Netherlands particularly for small-scale growing and does well in exposed sites. The plants look a bit different from other broad beans and are very decorative.

Ideal for a spring sowing (February through to late April), with early sowings best started in modules to avoid mice and slugs.

Short and highly productive
