The heritage variety Vicia faba ‘Crimson Flowered’ (broad bean) is an attractive addition for both the vegetable and the flower garden. Following the deep red flowers there are short, upright pods of beans.

Rhoda Catbush had four remaining seeds of Crimson Flowering Broad Bean in 1978, exactly two hundred years after it was first documented in Mawe and Abercrombie's "Every Man His Own Gardener". She'd been growing the gorgeous variety for many years, just as her father had since before World War One. She lost her crop that year and gave the last four seeds to the Henry Doubleday Research Association who helped revive the English heirloom with the help of volunteer growers. I know this plant from my time with William Woys Weaver and his Roughwood Seed Collection. We never got enough to eat, but this year I ordered seeds from England and hope to both eat this beauty, and have seed to share. I've already tried the flowers and leaves and they are tasty! #crimsonfloweredbroadbean #crimsonfloweringfava #crimsonfloweredfava #crimsonfloweringbroadbeans #viciafaba #fava #broadbean #favaflowers #favabeans #catbush #henrydoubleday #henrydoubledayresearchassociation #seedsaving #seedkeeping (at Newtown Square, Pennsylvania)

Plant of the Day

Wednesday 6 November 2019

A seedling of the hardy annual Vicia faba (broad bean, fava bean, faba bean) has germinated in this rather unusual mobile ‘garden’. In sheltered, southerly gardens on a well-drained soil, broad beans can be sown directly into the soil in early November for harvests as early as May. I’m not sure if this plant will survive till harvest?
