Peas and Thank you is an exceptional variety of petite shelling pea. Featuring curling tendrils, the vines cling together like Velcro, keeping the plant upright and the pods elevated above the ground. It can be grown in a small-medium sized pot and it’s best to keep the spacing tight so that the vines can grow together as it matures. This prolific garden pea produces beautiful white flowers and mature earlier than larger varieties, allowing gardeners to enjoy a quicker harvest. This can be especially advantageous in regions with shorter growing seasons or unpredictable weather. Ripen peas will turn dark green and are sugary sweet. Because of its neat and compact habit, Peas and Thank You is ideally planted in patio pots, mixed containers, raised beds or small home gardens.
