Beautiful beans!

We have a very good greengrocer in town who often sells unusual fruit and vegetables. One of my most favourite vegetables is the broad bean and although we grew some this year we didn’t manage to grow very many, and delicious though they ere they were very small. I saw these beautiful pods in the greengrocer’s and couldn’t resist buying them. I hoped the beans inside the pretty pods would be speckled too, and yes they were! We have saved some to try and grow next year!
