Broad beans are very nutritious and go well with many dishes so we decided to grow some in the front garden.
They are easy to grow and we decided to grow them straight from seed.
We planted them in diagonal rows about half a metre apart and with a space of about 25 centimetres between each seed.
This is what the broad bean plants looked like after they sprouted:
