When Sugar Lace arrived on the scene, a bright new day dawned for sugar snap peas! This variety was not only stringless, it was nearly LEAFLESS -- all its energy went into making peas, for yields like you wouldn't believe! Well, now the best is even better: Sugar Lace II has the same highly productive habit, PLUS improved disease resistance!
Sugar Lace II sets masses and masses of dark green, plump 3½-inch pods on compact 30-inch plants that never need staking. No strings and very few leaves mean easier harvest as well as lots more peas!
And while the production is exciting, the flavor is the real accomplishment here. Succulent and sweet, these peas are a gourmet treat -- without the gourmet price or special effort!
Sugar Lace II sets well in either spring or fall, and has added Pea Enation Mosaic Virus (PEMV) to its arsenal of disease resistance, which also includes Powdery Mildew and Bean Leaf Roll Virus. A great Pea for north or south, Sugar Lace II is a must for anyone who appreciates super-sweet flavor and plenty of it!
Easy to grow, peas love cold weather, so plant as soon as the soil can be worked in the spring. Direct-sow 1 to 2 inches apart and 1 to 1½ inches deep. Peas are also ideal as a fall crop started in late summer. To conserve space and simplify harvesting, sow in double rows with a trellis between rows.
When the harvest is in, be sure to chop the whole plant up and plow it back into the soil of your vegetable garden. Peas are legumes, great nitrogen-fixers in the garden. Your soil next season will be all the better for an infusion of legume plants! Happy growing!
These shrubby or vining plants bear white flowers that are followed by pods containing the edible, smooth or wrinkled Peas. Harvest them in the early morning when the pods are fully swollen. They should be filled out, but not bulging, and the seeds should not be hard. Snow Peas and Sugar Peas are grown for their edible, soft pods. Harvest them when young, succulent, and still flat. Pick all types regularly to keep the plants producing pods
Note: These seed counts are estimates. The actual number of seeds per ounce/pound may vary slightly.

Superior Germination Through Superior Science
First of all, we have humidity- and temperature-controlled storage, and we never treat any of our seeds with chemicals or pesticides. Nor do we ever sell GMO's (genetically modified seeds), so you always know the products you're buying from us are natural as well as safe for you and the environment.

Hand Packed By Experienced Technicians
Park Seed has been handling and packing vegetable and flower seeds for 145 years, a history that has given us a great understanding of how each variety should be cared for and maintained throughout every step of theprocess, from collection to shipping.
When packing our seeds, the majority are actually done by hand (with extreme care!), and we often over-pack them, so you're receiving more than the stated quantity.
The Park Seed Gold Standard
Heirloom Seeds are open-pollinated -- they are not hybrids. You can gather and save heirloom seed from year to year and they will grow true to type every year, so they can be passed down through generations. To be considered an heirloom, a variety would have to be at least from the 1940's and 3 generations old (many varieties are much older -- some 100 years or more!).
Hybrid seed are the product of cross-pollination between 2 different parent plants, resulting in a new plant/seed that is different from the parents. Unlike Heirloom seed, hybrid seed need to be re-purchased new every year (and not saved). They usually will not grow true to type if you save them, but will revert to one of the parents they were crossed with and most likely look/taste different in some way.
