Growing Information

How to Sow

Peas don’t like to be transplanted, so sow them directly where they are to grow. Poke holes in the soil, planting one to two seeds per planting station. Bear in mind that they will need support to climb. Planting next to fences makes staking simple.

How to Harvest

The younger peas are when you harvest them, the tenderer they will be. Pick your peas before the pods begin to swell with seeds.

Awesome variety - high yielding, delicious
Highly recommend this variety. I've struggled for years to get snowpeas to grow in my climate. This variety is currently thriving in winter in my subtropical garden. Tall, healthy plants absolutely loaded with large delicious snowpeas. Producing so many pods I'm going to have some leftover to freeze. Will be growing this variety every year now
