Dwarf French Bean 'Faraday'

Dwarf French Bean 'Faraday'

£2.25

From our friends at Winnow Farm Seeds comes Faraday, which they rate as the best dwarf French bean they’ve found for flavour. This variety produces beautifully straight, slender green beans which are fine-textured and tender, quite different from the thicker, more robust green bean varieties. The flavour is fresh and delicate, perfect for quick cooking, steaming, or eating just-picked.

The plants themselves are neat and vigorous, with strong growth that easily supports heavy harvests without flopping. Like many dwarf varieties, Faraday has been bred to crop generously over a few short weeks, delivering a concentrated flush of delicious beans when you need them most. 

  • Sow: April undercover, May-June outside
  • Plant: 30cm apart
  • Harvest: July-September, pick regularly.

Winnow Farm Seeds are a small seed farm and seed company based in Dorset. They focus on great quality seeds that are tested to thrive in the British climate. Their varieties are chosen for their great taste and are all open pollinated varieties with no F1 hybrids.
