Pea (Snap), Sugar Magnolia Snap Pea Seeds

1.600 KD

Wow, a purple snap pea, tender and delicious! ‘Sugar Magnolia’ isn’t just a famous Grateful Dead song, it is also a beautiful, fine-flavored, edible-pod pea with purple flowers. Long hypertendrils (vigorous, multi-branching tendrils) act as extra sturdy supports for 6′-7′ vining plants, creating an airy structure that also helps prevent mildew. A few of these open-pollinated peas may be speckled with green.
