Snow Pea-Taichung

Taichung is an ancient snowpea (or Pisum sativum var. saccharatum), and one of the earliest-known cultivated plants! There is evidence that snow peas were cultivated in a region that is now along the Thailand-Burma border about 12,000 years ago. These compact plants with short internodes produce pink flowers that mature to tender and delicious snow peas.

Latin Name: Pisum sativum

Planting Guidance: Soil should be well drained with pH in the range of 6.0 to 6.8. Peas require a soil rich in phosphorus and potassium for good production. Too much nitrogen causes lush vine growth at the expense of pod production. Sow seed 1" deep, 1/2-1" apart in double rows 4" apart.
