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.
In stock
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. Pick pods about every two days when they are large and the seeds have swelled a bit. For seed saving, leave some pods on the vines until they turn dry and brown and seeds can no longer be dented with a fingernail.
