Pea 'Darien'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys partial sun and remember to water very often. Keep in mind when planting that Darien is thought of as half hardy, so remember to watch your frost dates and ensure you have this plant protected when the temperature dips. Darien requires a loamy soil with a ph of 5.5 - 6.5 - it grows best in weakly acidic soil.

Ensure a distance of 2.97 inches (7.62 cm) between seeds when sowing - look to sow at a depth of approximately 0.99 inches (2.54 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 4°C / 39°F to ensure good germination.

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

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Darien is a half hardy plant.
