Extremely popular and reliable, early maturing variety for successional sowings throughout spring, and a particular favourite for June sowings. Produces huge crops of narrow pointed pods in pairs, averaging 7or 8 succulent peas per pod.

Sowing

Direct sow outdoors from March to June, once the soil has warmed. Choose a weed-free position on moist, fertile, well drained soil in full sun. Sow seed in flat bottomed drills at a distance of 5cm (2") apart, and 4cm (1 1/2") deep. Allow a distance of 75cm (30") between rows. For successional crops, sow peas every 10 days.
 
More Info

Support pea plants with twiggy sticks, wire or netting as they grow, and use fine netting to protect pea crops from birds and pea moth damage. When growing peas, regular and thorough watering especially when in flower will improve crop yields. Harvest peas around 14 weeks after sowing when the pods have swollen. Regular picking will encourage further cropping.
