Pea Snap Super Sugar Snap Seed

Pisum sativum

Item #7307

LARGE PACKET

66 days. Enjoy the crunchy, sweet flavor of the original Sugar Snap a week sooner. Super Sugar Snap is an improved variety with plumper pods, earlier harvest, better yields and more disease resistance. The fat, crisp, stringless pods are produced in pairs along the climbing vines, and each pod is filled with sweet round peas. Plants are resistant to powdery mildew, and tolerant of pea leaf roll virus for a reliable harvest. Climbing vines reach 5', and grow best on poles or trellises. For an extended harvest, make three sowings a week apart. Be sure to plant extra since you won’t be able to resist nibbling a few peas in the garden! Pods make a great snack served fresh with dip, and are delicious in garden salads, stir-fries and soups.
