Love this pea
2012 will be the 6th year I have grown this pea. They always do well for me. I am in the mountains of Western , NC, elevation 2030 Ft. I grow these up a very tall trellis. They end up maybe about 7 or 8 feet tall when finished.
I stash a bunch of these peas in my freezer and enjoy them all winter long.
