Product Details

Snap peas are best eaten fresh and there's nothing like picking them right off the vine. The French call edible podded peas mange tout meaning "eat all." An All-America Selections award winner, 'Sugar Snap' provides an extended harvest of thick, crunchy 3" pods filled with flavorful peas. Vines tolerate some heat. Grow climbing 6'–8' vines on poles or a trellis.

    I direct sowed an entire packet of sugar daddy and an entire packet of sugar snap peas in 15 gallon buckets. My original plan was to thin them out, but I changed my mind to see how they would do. The sugar snap snap peas are in the right bucket and have grow much faster than the sugar daddy peas in the left bucket. Both were direct sowed with Fox Farms Ocean Forest potting soil. I sowed them in December (Las Vegas, NV, 9A). So far no peas, but I’m sure I’ll get some soon. I’ll update when I get peas 🫛

    Love these, first timer and I trained them up tomato spirals, got my first couple and they are delicious right off the vine. Great germination (ended up with 5/6 vines), very healthy plants.
