There are a few choices for fava beans:
Windsor – this variety is commonly sold by most seed companies
Sweet Lorane – it is grown for the beans and for cover crops.
Ianto’s – this one can reach 6 feet tall – yikes!
Robin Hood – this one is ready to be harvested in 80 to 85 days
Extra Precoce A Grano Violetto -I have been growing this variety for several years and originally bought the seeds from Baker Creek. I forgot to save the seeds last year and only have enough for two plants. I am bummed because Baker Creek isn’t offering them this year.
I usually get my fava beans from Baker Creek and Botanical Interests.
