Pea Purple Magnolia Seeds
Vegetable Seeds from Sow Seeds Ltd
Pea Purple Magnolia took over 15 years of work to create the first purple-podded sugar snap pea. Pick them before they grow large to enjoy them at their best, the peas are also very tasty when immature.
Pea Purple Magnolia crunchy pods have a good, sweet flavour and make a colourful and tasty raw addition to a salad, for snacking or steamed and served as a side. Easy to grow on a trellis or other growing supports, the strong hyper-tendrils cling well and support the long, climbing stems. Height: 1.8m Spread: 25cm.
Pea Purple Magnolia can also be a wonderful asset in the borders with its fabulous bicoloured purple flowers.
If you want to extend your pea cropping season then look to sow in 3 stages, for example:
| First Earlies | Second Earlies | Maincrop |
| Pea Douce Provence | Pea Hurst Greenshaft | Pea Alderman |
 |

Dig a shallow trench about 2.5cm deep and 15cm wide. Sow 3 rows of seeds about 4cm apart in each direction. Push lightly into the soil and rake the soil carefully back over and gently firm.
