Japanese Snow pea
$4.00
(Lathyrus oleraceus syn. Pisum sativum)
A carouby (giant snow) pea with enormous, sweet pods – the largest and sweetest we have found, about 5” long by 1” wide! Abundant, covers a 5’ trellis. We eat loads of these in season.

Plant as soon as ground can be worked. Sow 1” deep and 2” apart, in a double row 8” wide. Trellis if necessary with twine or netting; can’t hang on to poles. Pick green shelling peas regularly to increase yields; pick dry peas when vines are drying down and seeds can no longer be dented with a fingernail. For fall planting, plant 6-8 weeks before first frost.
