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 – ‘Tom Thumb Dwarf’ Pea
At 8" - 12" tall, this aptly named dwarf pea is ideal for container gardening/raised beds and is very frost-tolerant. Produces lots of delicious peas per plant and the peas can be used as whole pods when young or mature shelling peas. No trellis support needed. The size makes patio gardening a breeze, and kids also will love these. Fast growing and low maintenance. Try some today!
Originating in England and introduced in the United States in the mid-19th century, there were several strains of this variety; over time, further reductions in height and time to maturity were achieved, leading to the pea we know as Tom Thumb today. Shell, 50-55 days.
Peas thrive in cool weather. Sow seeds outdoors as soon as soil can be worked in spring and in later summer. In addition to containers, Tom Thumb is good for cold-frame production and for planting in flower borders.
Approximate seeds per pack: 25
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!
