Snow Pea 'Snowbird'

Support peas on a pea fence, pea tower or trellis netting.¹

A full sun position will ensure your plant thrives and remember to water very often. Keep in mind when planting that Snowbird is thought of as half hardy, so remember to protect this plant from frosts and low temperatures. Try to keep the ph of your soil between the range of 5.5 and 6.5 as Snowbird likes to be in weakly acidic soil.

Try to aim for a seed spacing of at least 2.97 inches (7.62 cm) and sow at a depth of around 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 Snowbird about 42 days before your last frost date.

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

This variety tends to be ready for harvesting by late spring.
