To us there is no spring crop (and very few summer crops) that pack the freshness and flavor of home-grown peas. If only we had the discipline to save a few for the kitchen - we can't resist eating all these sugary goodies right at the vine!

VG9815 SUGAR SPRINTSNAP PEA SEEDS

Resistant to powdery mildew and pea enation virus. Highly recommended. Packet is 1-ounce, about 100-125 seeds. Sorry, out of stock.
How to Plant PEA Seeds
Sow seed 1 inch apart and 1 inch deep in rows 12-18 inches apart. Do not thin. At 50-75 degrees F, germination is in 1-2 weeks. Comments: Peas love cool humid weather and should be planted as early in the spring as the soil can be worked. Where winters are mild sow from October to February for early spring production that will beat the heat.
