Sugar Snap Pea seeds are an All-America Selections winner! These edible pea pods are crunchy and very sweet. Peas will tolerate a light frost when young and heat when they mature. This pea variety is delicious with fresh dips, added to stir fry or lightly cooked and enjoyed alone. It's a tasty and versatile vegetable that is easy to grow either in the ground or in containers, tolerating a variety of climates and can be harvested when young for an early crop. When planting sugar snap peas, be sure to sow seeds roughly 1" deep and 2" apart in rows, keeping your rows approximately 2.5' (two and a half feet) apart. Plants will perform best when a trellis supports them! Sow seeds in an area that receives full sun.
