Favas are fabulous. I tried growing them in 5 gallon paint buckets on my roof this year but their shallow root systems really need room to spread, it seems. Each plant only produced a few pods, and the rooftop heat is really starting to get to them (lower leaves already turning yellow etc.)

I love to eat them, and am hoping to plant an overwintering crop in the ground this fall. Supposedly they ripen in April in zone 7 if you plant them in early October.

I tried favas for the first time this year (eating them, not planting) and I absolutely love them! Tanks for sharing yours from the garden... maybe I'll have to add this to the list for next season.
