Product Details

Homegrown peas taste so much better than store bought peas! Like snap or green beans, pods and all are consumed! 'Cascadia' has 3" long, deep green, thick, juicy pods that are very flavorful. Serve raw with dip, steam, or stir fry. Short, 30" vines are self-supporting. Resists powdery mildew and pea enation virus, making it an excellent choice for late summer sowing as well.

    The pea seed packets were filled with split peas and trash with very few viable seeds. Of the peas in the packets, the sprout rate was less than 20%. My pea crop was ruined by the quality of these seeds as the cost of soil amendments (which far exceeded the cost of seed) was wasted. Botanical Interests replaced my initial purchase with seeds that were just as bad as the initial purchase. I have never had an experience with seeds of such poor quality, and I will avoid their products in the future given the lack of quality control.

    I didn’t have great germination with these. Less than half sprouted and seem to be stunted. I also bought the Oregon Sugar Pod II Snow Pea Seeds from botanical interest that had very high germination rate and are looking great. I would recommend the Oregon Sugar Pod variety over the Cascadia Snap Pea!
