Growing Information

Sowing Instructions

If you don’t have a problem with mice, direct sow peas outdoors from March to June. Alternatively, sow seeds in lengths of drainpipe filled with peat free compost. Once plants are around 20 cm tall, they can be slid down the drainpipe into their final position. Cold hardy peas can be overwintered in the drainpipe in the greenhouse before planting out in early spring.

Growing Instructions

Plants will require support and so are perfect for growing over arches where it’s easier to harvest the top section of the plant. May require netting if pigeons are a problem for you. Regular harvesting will encourage the plant to continue producing loads of peas.
