How to grow Pea 'Novella'

  • Partial Sun

  • Very High

Try to plant in a location that enjoys partial sun and remember to water very often. Novella is generally regarded as a half hardy plant, so it will need protecting in periods of cold weather. Novella needs a loamy soil with a ph of 5.5 to 6.5 (weakly acidic soil).

Growing Novella from seed

Aim to sow 0.99 inches (2.54 cm) deep and try to ensure a gap of at least 2.97 inches (7.62 cm). For optimal germination, soil temperature should be a minimum of 4°C / 39°F.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Novella about 35 days before your last frost date.

Transplanting Novella

Novella is half hardy, so ensure you wait until all danger of frost has passed in your area before considering planting outside.
