Somewhat random question, but after a fair bit of googling I can't find the answer! My Sutton broad beans are in glorious full flower, and some of the flowers have now started to fade. Where does the actual pod then start to form? Does it grow behind where the flower once was? Or somewhere completely different?

Excuse the randomness, just something I've been curious about over the last few days!

As the flower starts to shrivel the pod is left in the middle of it, sort of.

Thank you! Is that the same for peas / french beans / mangetout etc?

Yes.
