The 'Sugar Snap' pea was the first of its kind. In 1979 Dr. Calvin Lamborn bred snow peas and shelling peas together to create the sweet, plump, edible pod pea. Enjoy an extended harvest of thick, crunchy 3" pods filled with flavorful peas. Vines tolerate some heat. Grow climbing 6'-8" vines on poles or a trellis. This packet sows up to 9 feet.

When to sow outside: RECOMMENDED. 4 to 6 weeks before your average last frost date, when soil temperature is at least 40°F, ideally 60°-80°F. In mild climates, sow in fall or winter for winter harvest. Best grown in temperatures less than 85°F.

When to start inside: Not recommended. Special germination instructions: Soak seed in water for 12 to 24 hours before sowing; this is not required, but hastens germination.
