Peas Sugarsnap

Sugarsnap peas are a garden favourite, blending the sweetness of garden peas with the crunch of snow peas. This variety grows on compact, medium-sized plants, making it perfect for smaller spaces or raised beds. With the help of a trellis or light support, these vines will reward you with a steady supply of bright green, plump pods packed with flavour.

Unlike traditional shelling peas, Sugarsnaps don’t need to be peeled, you eat the entire pod ! That makes them a time-saving, garden-to-table delight. They thrive in cooler months, so planting in early spring or autumn delivers the best results. Their charming white blossoms add a touch of beauty to veggie beds and draw in pollinators, too.

Keep them well-watered during flowering and pick regularly to encourage ongoing production. Whether you’re growing them in large pots or along a fence line, Sugarsnap peas deliver in both taste and appearance. A bowl of these crunchy treats barely makes it back to the kitchen, they’re irresistible right off the vine.
