The Sweetest Sugar Snap Ever Developed!

Quicker, heavier crop on very tall vines!

64 days from direct-sowing.

The sweetest sugar snap ever grown, Super Sugar Snap bears a quicker, heavier crop than most others. It has become a classic favorite among Park gardeners, and we offer our highest recommendation for big, delicious crops every time from this dependable favorite!

The 55- to 65-inch vines are very productive, bearing twice as many pods as others. And the flavor of these tender, succulent peas is superb! The thick-walled, plump pods are just bursting with savory goodness.

Very vigorous, these vines are tolerant of Powdery Mildew and Pea Leaf Roll Virus, which makes Super Sugar Snap a good choice for beginning gardeners as well as seasoned vets. Begin your pea season a little sooner and realize incredible yields with this workhorse!

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.

Be sure to plow under this entire plant after harvesting its big crop of peas. Super Sugar Snap is a legume, so it will help fix nitrogen in the soil. You will see the results of this next season in your garden, when your soil is more loamy, rich, and healthy than ever!

Wonderful!

I love this pea! The only reason my wife lets me work in the garden so much is because she can enjoy this wonderful plant. Don't be fooled...it grows strong and it grows quickly, so make sure to put your trellis in early. We are in Kansas City with clay soil.

Love this pea

This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

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.
