Pea - Snow Pea 'Yokomo Giant'
The perfect snow pea for growing over an arbour or archway, plants reach up to 2m tall, and are ready to harvest in 70 days from sowing. With excellent heat tolerance, this snow pea can be grown year round in most areas of Australia.
Peas are tolerant of various soil types, although slightly alkaline, deep loams that have just grown a crop of tomatoes or potatoes are perfect. Their large seeds are easy to handle and germinate quickly, making them ideal for children to grow. Peas prefer the cooler months, as temperatures over 25 degrees reduce flowering.
