ELAINE'S SUGAR PEA

ELAINE'S SUGAR PEA

***NOT TO TAS*** (Pisum sativum) German heirloom dating back to 1850's. Handed to us & named after a passionate Tasmanian gardener who had kept the seed in her family for many generations. It was originally brought to Australia by Valentine & Christina Wagner who travelled from Weisbaden in Germany to Tasmania, settling in the Richmond / Campania area. An unusual variety producing numerous pods with distinct inner peas which appear like little peas having been enclosed in a transparent glove. Attractive, bi-coloured, deep purple / burgundy flowers. Very tall plant (definitely not for windy areas). Used as a sugar pea eating pods and all, either fresh or cooked. Best time to harvest is when the pods are starting to curl. 50 seeds
