Productive and frost resistant, it is an excellent cool-season crop that makes good use of vertical growing space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe plump pods grow to approximately 7 cm long and are eaten whole, including the developing peas inside. They have a deliciously sweet flavour and juicy crunch and can be eaten straight from the garden, sliced into salads or lightly steamed or stir-fried.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike snow peas, which are harvested while their pods are still flat, sugarsnaps are allowed to fill out until the pods become rounded and succulent. Pick while they remain bright, crisp and tender for the best eating quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe vigorous vines require a sturdy trellis, fence or netting from an early stage. Climbing peas generally produce over a longer period than dwarf forms, and regular harvesting encourages continued flowering and pod development.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePeas are among the world’s oldest cultivated food crops, originating in the Near East and grown since ancient times. Early peas were primarily harvested and dried for storage, while edible-podded forms were later selected for their tender, sweet pods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeed count: approximately 3–5 seeds\/g\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApproximately 100 seeds per packet\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhen to Plant (Australia)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTropics: Autumn to winter\u003cbr\u003eSubtropics: Late summer to autumn\u003cbr\u003eMild climates: Late summer to autumn\u003cbr\u003eCold climates: Spring, with autumn sowing possible in suitable areas\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting \/ Sowing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSow approximately 20–30 mm deep directly where plants are to grow.
