Sugar Snap
SKU

Description
This increasingly popular variety produces lots of deliciously sweet, good shaped pods that do not have to be pealed, the whole pod can be eaten raw or cooked, they can also be grown on to produce peas, so they really are a good all-rounder.
Pant
Harvest
Roughly 5-6 weeks after planting, Before the peas have developed.
Growing Instructions
There are 2 ways to grow these- 1 - Carefully plant 10cm apart in well drained soil, in a sunny but sheltered position. As they get bigger, they will need support with either pea sticks, trellis or even twigs. OR 2 - The easiest way (and the way we do it) is just plant them 10cm apart, just let them grow wild. Keep well watered until established and in dry weather. harvesting this way is more of a challenge but great fun for the kids to get involved to help find them.
Tip
Plant every 4 weeks for a continuous supply.
