Sugar Ann Snap Pea
Compact sugar snap peas ideal for container gardens
- High yields of stringless pods
- Sweet, crisp and truly delicious
- Short, bushy, self-supporting plants
- Early to mature (10 days earlier than typical snap peas)
No need to stake these 10-24" dwarf pea plants--their short, bushy vines produce pods 10 days earlier than other snap pea varieties. Their small size makes them ideal for small gardens or container gardens (try them with our Grow Tubs®!). Sugar Ann's pods are delicious when sauteed, steamed or eaten fresh as a healthy snack. They'll stay crisp and delicious no matter what! Toss into a summery salad, or add to your favorite veggie stir fry for a bit of sweet crunch. Sugar Ann seeds are treated for healthier germination, more prolific yields, and more robust overall growth. 56 days to maturity.
