Morton Smith-Dawe 500g Somerwood Pea Seed

Peas are one of the best cool-season crops for the home garden and can be grown in all climates. You can plant peas from autumn to spring in mild areas and where winters are cold and frosty you can plant mid-winter to late spring.

Plant approx 3cm deep, 8cm apart and rows space 40-50cm.

Peas can be grown on the ground, or with supporting structures such as trellis, netting, trained along fences or by placing a stake at the end of the rows and running string between the stakes.

Apply garden lime or dolomite prior to planting. Blood and bone is also beneficial.

Somerwood is a high yielder with a lovely taste.
