Crispy crunchy sweet peas are very popular with home growers (especially ones with picky young eaters in the house!) because they are easy to grow, sweet and delicious however beware when planning a garden that includes snap peas, as they really aren’t well suited to our climate and have to be planted during our very “coldest” months of the year only. That being said, consider saving your snap pea enthusiasm for November & December, January at the latest! Snap peas need to be trellised but they do most of the work themselves. Once your peas start producing harvest every other day to make sure you get the beans before they are too fibrous. The beautiful lavender, blue & white flowers are edible too!

Plant Care
Plant Care
When your plant delivery arrives, make sure you water your new plants thoroughly with a light spray of water (none of this thumb over the hose stuff). We recommend planting them within 10 days of receiving them. If you do intent to wait to plant them, we recommend placing them in a shallow reservoir (like a baking pan) and filling it with half an inch of water so they can drink the water from below while you are at work and place them in an area with plenty of sun. When planting in your garden always add a dash of Organic granular fertilizer, and give them extra water during their first week in their new home, while they adjust. We recommend disturbing the root ball as little as possible during planting.
