24 Giant Butter or Fava Bean 
85 days. Giant Butter or Fava Beans are much hardier than other beans and should be 
planted as early in the spring as the ground can be worked; they will not thrive in summer 
heat. Plants are large and erect, true bush form, and heavy yielders. Pods are glossy 
green, 7 in. long, and quite broad, and contain 5 to 7 large, broad, flat, light green beans, 
which are valuable for use as green shell beans. The pods are not edible; the large beans 
somewhat resemble Lima Beans and should be used in the same way. Becoming very 
popular. One pkt. will plant 15 ft. of row; 1 lb. 75 ft.; 120 lbs. for one acre. __
