Perfect for people who suffer from fear of germination. This heirloom collection has Scarlet Runner Beans (circa 1640) and Dwarf Grey Sugar Peas (circa 1892) These are super easy to grow. You can also use the flowers as edible flowers in salads, on cheeses or as a garnish. In fact you can also eat the leaves of the pea plant. An interesting way to dress up any meal. Planting instructions Peas are a cool weather crop. If the soil workable you can plant as early as February for a late spring harvest. Midsummer pickings are not as prolific as earlier harvests. If you are planting later you may want to put them in a cooler spot that is partially shady.
