Item Details
As its name suggests, this variety produces very large, long snow pea pods that also happen to be deliciously sweet, crisp, and juicy. Straight, light-green pods measure 5-6"" long; each pod contains 5-8 slightly wrinkled seeds with a grey coat and purple speckles. Perfect for stir-frying, the pods also make an excellent soup pea. Long popular on the Exchange, this variety has been shared within the Seed Savers Exchange community since the early 1990s. Vigorous, late-maturing plants produce pretty, pigmented flowers and grow over 5' tall. 60-70 days.
