Care instructions
An early, edible-pod pea ideal for small gardens. Its short, bushy vines do not need support, and it produces about 10 days earlier than other snap peas. Delicious pods are a joy sauteed, fresh or steamed. An AAS winner from 1984.

All require mild weather to do their best. May be sown in the spring, one-half to one inch deep and several inches apart in all directions, several weeks before the last frost date of spring. Most types need support, such as a trellis, net, fence, etc. Try to time the planting so the plants mature a full crop before the arrival of really hot weather. For fall planting, sow the seeds in late summer two months before first frost date of autumn.
