Purple Podded Peas are a unique variety of pea with striking purple pods that turn green once harvested. The peas themselves are sweet and tender, making them perfect for fresh eating, cooking, or freezing. This variety thrives in cool climates and is ideal for early spring or fall planting
Planting season: Early spring to early summer
Germination time: 7–14 days
Position: Full sun, well-drained, fertile soil
Days till maturity: 60–75 days
Plant height: Up to 90 cm
Growing instructions:
Sow seeds directly outdoors as soon as the soil is workable, spacing them 5–7 cm apart. Thin seedlings to 10–15 cm apart once they are established. Peas prefer cooler temperatures and should be kept well-watered, especially during dry spells. Provide support for climbing varieties, such as trellises or stakes, to encourage healthy growth and easy harvesting. Harvest the pods when they are full and tender.
