Good plant health and a good flavor in 2018. Purchasing again for 2019.

Every single pea I planted germinated! They were the first thing to be planted outside last spring so they got lot of attention but they grew so nice on their own. The trellis I made was not tall enough and I had to get creative. The pods were flawless and so good to eat raw. Aphids covered my plants at one time but I hand squished them for a few days and they never returned. A harsh windstorm finally knocked out my trellis and I pulled everything out but I will definitely be planting these every year.

Very good and sweet, barely made it out of the garden. I made a mistake by following square foot gardening spacing for these, so they were overcrowded, but the ones I kept produced very well. Purchasing them again :)
