I have bought some of these because I ate some once as a snack with beer (possibly in Spain or Portugal?) and really liked them.

Has anyone grown these please?

Missed that one. Thanks MoS

My seeds are more the size of ten pence pieces though.

I can't understand how they are from a lupin-style flower at that size, so wanted to know how other had got on with these

(If anyone has, of course    )

I grew these beans a couple of years ago and yes the plants do look like lupins, with the beans forming in the flower spike.  My plants got so infested with blackfly that I had to abandon them before harvest.

Thanks lacewing.

I shall give them a go and hope to avoid the blackfly
