70 days to maturity. This unique snap pea variety was bred by Dr. Alan Kapuler. The plants are vigorous and highly productive, growing between 5 to 8 feet tall. Magnolia blossom has beautiful bicolored purple blossoms, thus where its name comes from. The vines have hypertendrils, which can help the vines cling and climb sturdily. The vines are very sturdy, and with regular harvesting, they will continue to produce pods over a long season. For the best flavor, the pods should be picked just before the string on the pod turns red
