Pea – ‘Blue Pod Capucijners’
The Blue-podded Capucijner (cap-ou-SIGH-nah) is a hardy pea first grown by the Franciscan Capuchin monks. Its particularly beautiful, bi-colored flowers are lilac/pink and wine-red/purple, fading to blue as they wilt; pods are deep inky purple/blue. It is best used to make delicious, full-bodied soups; also an edible-podded sugar pea. Great long term storage food.
Soaring, vining plants are smothered in the most striking dark purple pea pods. A rich eggplant color, these shelling peas are as delicious as they are beautiful; pick early for best flavor. The vining stems make a wonderful and unexpected addition to summer flower arrangements and are a real conversation starter. A must grow heirloom.
Beautiful heirloom pea that is pretty enough to grow as an ornamental for the edible gardening fans, even if you don't like peas. The dark colored pods really stand out against the background of the bright green leaves making them very easy to pick. It is a good choice for children and the elderly.
Approximately 30 seeds per packet. (read more below)
Pea – ‘Sumo’ Snow Pea
Pisum sativum (66 days) Open-pollinated. The Sumo cum laude of snow peas! Sumo is the best purple-flowered snow pea we’ve ever had. Its light lime-green pods are larger and fatter than Mammoth Melting Sugar’s and really sweet right off the vine as well as in stir-fries.
This amazing snow pea came to me via a Seeds of Diversity Grow out.They need to have seeds grown and returned to them to bulk up their seed bank and I get to keep a few and have now grown them out again to be able to offer some to you.
Pea ‘Amplissimo Viktoria Ukrainskaya’
Ukrainian heirloom
a.k.a. the "Garbanzo pea of the North"
A pea to substitute for climates where it is difficult to grow chickpeas because of short springs and hot summers. Makes delicious hummus, curries, you name it! These peas hold their shape after cooking just like chickpeas!

Pepper – Black Hungarian
(Capsicum annuum) Beautifully bold and decidedly sweet…
There’s a drama to the Hungarian black pepper that’s 100% its own. Its dark-hued skin turns to a rich jewel tone red as it ages, and it delivers a certain sweetness at maturity quite unlike other chilies in its heat range. This is a chili that fits both form and function, working beautifully as both an ornamental pepper and a culinary chili.
PEPPER ‘BLACK PEARL’
The Black Pearl is a stunning ornamental pepper plant! So beautiful that All America Selections (AAS) awarded it for its beauty in 2006.
I love to use these in floral arrangements.
Don’t let the term “ornamental” fool you; these are edible hot peppers with a surprising pop of heat (10,000 to 30,000 Scoville heat units) with a light citrusy-sweet flavour.

Pepper ‘Bolivian Rainbow’
A stunningly beautiful plant-grown for centuries in Bolivia (Central South America) with 1" cone shaped peppers growing upright on the plant so they are very visible.
Starting out a brilliant purple, turning yellow to orange to red, with all stages of the pepper present on the plant at once, making it a bright and colourful addition to your garden, pots or arrangements.
They grow very well in containers and indoors as well, and as long as direct light can be supplied, you can enjoy these chilies for much of the year.
