How to grow Snow Pea 'Snowflake'

  • Partial Sun

  • Very High

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

Growing Snowflake from seed

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 Snowflake about 42 days before your last frost date.

Transplanting Snowflake

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