  • Broad Bean, Oscar

    Has anyone grown these chaps? Apparently they are small and 'perfectly formed' and don't need any support.

    Oscar's mentioned in the RHS mag that's just landed.

    "A favourite with commercial growers for small, flavoursome and uniform beans that are easy to freeze. Plants are compact with upright pods and do not need support. £1.50 from Kings seeds."

    Other mags and seed companies are available. I receive no handouts for quoting this!

      Is the idea that you eat the pod and beans?

        Indeed, that's where I spotted them. I haven't heard of them. I will give them a go
