Fothergill's Pea Snap Nairobi Seeds

Details:

• Botanical Name: Pisum sativum, a superior, high-performing climbing legume variety.
• Totally Stringless Pods: Developed to produce thick-walled, succulent pods that remain completely free of tough strings, providing a tender, melt-in-the-mouth texture.
• Sweet & Crunchy Flavour: Delivers a burst of refreshing, sweet juice with every bite, making them an irresistible snack to eat raw straight from the vine or lightly steam.
• Powdery Mildew Tolerance: Bred with excellent natural resistance to powdery mildew, keeping the climbing foliage healthy and extending the productive harvesting window late into summer.
• Compact Climbing Habit: Reaches a highly manageable height of 60cm (2ft), making it an ideal choice for smaller vegetable plots, raised beds, or even patio planters fitted with a short support frame.
• Nutrient-Dense Crop: A highly rewarding homegrown vegetable that provides a fantastic, clean source of essential vitamins A, C, and K for healthy everyday cooking.

Care Instructions:

• Sow seeds directly outdoors from spring to early summer in flat-bottomed drills 5cm deep, spacing the seeds roughly 5cm apart in well-drained soil.
• Provide short netting, pea sticks, or a low bamboo framework for the climbing tendrils to grip as the plants develop.
• Water the base of the plants generously once flowers appear and during pod development to lock in the pods' characteristic sweetness and crunchy texture.
