Pea ‘Blauwschokker’ is a wonderful looking pea variety, as well as tasty! The pods that are produced are a stunning dark purple, making them stand out amongst other pea varieties, and with their sweet pea like flowers, they can be grown ornamentally. The flowers are bi-coloured, mauve with a darker purple centre. The pods can be picked early for a lovely mangetout or left to mature for full sized peas.Plant out peas in moist, fertile, well drained soil in full sun. Allow a distance of 75cm (30") between rows.Support pea plants with twiggy sticks, wire or netting as they grow, and use fine netting to protect pea crops from birds and pea moth damage. When growing peas, regular and thorough watering especially when in flower will improve crop yields. Harvest peas around 14 weeks after sowing when the pods have swollen. Regular picking will encourage further cropping.Product Specifications:. Position: Full sun. Height: Up to 150cm (60in). Spread: Up to 45cm (18in). Harvest: June
