Probably the Gigantes is the same variety I am growing which is called "White Giant" (with white flowers). The seeds get really big, but probably not as big as in Greece with warmer weather.
ETA: I just read that the Fasolia Gigantes is a protected name of origin for this bean which is cultivated in some Northern Greece regions.
Here in Central Europe those white runner beans and the fava beans are the biggest we can grow.
It is too cold for Lima/butter beans.

I picked up some large white runner bean selections from Seed Savers that are nice. Here's picks of the dried seeds that I got. The central selection had the largest seeds as they were thicker/more solid than the selection on the left. The person listing these said they can be up to 1.75" long in the shelly stage!
