| GARDEN PEAS
(Pisum sativum) All require mild weather to do their best. May be sown in the spring, one-half to one inch deep and several inches apart in all directions, several weeks before the last frost date of spring. Most types need support, such as a trellis, net, fence, etc. Try to time the planting so the plants mature a full crop before the arrival of really hot weather. For fall planting, sow the seeds in late summer two months before first frost date of autumn.
100 seeds per packet.
