Sugar Snap Climbing Pea

Description

Sugar Snap Climbing Peas is a very popular pea variety that produces stringless juicy pea pods reaching 8 – 9 cm in length and suits both professional and home growers.

These peas are vining plants that grow best when supported by a trellis, fence, or any other vertical structure and they can reach heights of 2 m.

The pods are thick walled and tender and will provide many weeks of crisp, sweet peas that can be eaten as a whole pod when they are young or left to grow larger to use as a shelling pea.

Pods should be picked when they are still young, tender, and the peas inside are just beginning to swell. Regular harvesting encourages more production.

Consistent watering is important, especially during dry spells, to ensure good pod development. However, avoid waterlogging, as this can lead to root diseases.
