Golden yellow color from the breeder of Sugar Snap.
This eye-catching yellow snap pea comes to us from Rod Lamborn, son of Calvin Lamborn, the father of the snap pea and breeder of the classic Sugar Snap. A beautiful addition to a snap pea mix, particularly with Royal Snap II, and either Sugar Ann or Sugar Snap. Remove string from pods before cooking. Pods avg. 2 3/4–3" long with 2 per node on 30" vines. PVP pending. Avg. 1,800 seeds/lb. Packet: 50 seeds.
SCIENTIFIC NAME:Pisum sativum
CULTURE:Peas are a cool-weather crop. Midsummer pickings are not as prolific as earlier harvests. For best yields ensure adequate fertility and a pH of 6.0-7.5. Adjust pH with ground limestone or wood ashes before planting, ideally in the fall. Plant the first sowing in early spring as soon as the soil can be worked. In well-drained soil, sow 1-1 1/2" apart in a 3" band (25 seeds/ft.), 1/2-1" deep. Do not thin. Varieties under 3' tall can be sown without support in rows 12-18" apart. For taller varieties, use crop supports such as a trellis net or chicken wire to keep vines upright, easy to pick and off the ground where they are less likely to rot if rainy weather coincides with harvest. Suspend the bottom of the trellis or chicken wire just above the young plants. The best time to install a trellis is at planting time. Normal row spacing is 4-6' for trellised peas. Harvest when peas enlarge in the pods.
FALL CROP:Choose powdery mildew resistant varieties. Sow about 2 months before frost. Keep seeds well watered to encourage good germination.
INOCULANT:Inoculate peas to encourage formation of nitrogen-producing nodules on the plant roots. This enriches the soil, results in larger plants, and increases yield.
TREATED SEEDS:Treated seeds are less susceptible to rotting in prolonged cold, wet weather.
DISEASES:A common disease is pea root rot (Fusarium sp. or Aphanomyces euteiches) which causes yellowing and die-back of foliage from the ground up. The best control is to ensure well-drained soil and to rotate crops out of legumes for at least three years. Powdery mildew causes white, powdery mold on the leaves, stems, and pods in hot weather. Choose resistant varieties.
FREEZING:All our peas are good for freezing and canning.
AVG. SEEDING RATE:SEEDS/LB.: 1,450-3,400 (avg. 2,200).
PACKET:50 seeds, sows 8'.
