Pea Alderman is a tall-growing variety known for its large, sweet, and tender peas. This heirloom variety produces heavy yields of flavorful peas that are perfect for fresh eating, freezing, or cooking. It thrives in cooler temperatures and well-drained, fertile soil.
Planting season: Early spring
Germination time: 7–14 days

Growing instructions:
Sow seeds directly outdoors as soon as the soil can be worked in spring, spacing them 5–7 cm apart. Peas prefer cool weather and will benefit from being grown in a sheltered spot. Provide a support for the tall plants to climb, and water regularly to maintain consistent moisture. Harvest when the pods are plump, but before they become overripe for the best flavor.
