Peas 'Low Grey Red-flowered'

  • Product number: 110000
  • Origin: Mediterranean Region
  • Latin: Pisum sativum

A very sought-after variety, not only for its taste, but also because birds are less fond of it. The flowers are a beautiful violet with dark purple, giving them ornamental value. The plants grow to approx. 75 cm high, so cultivation along a fence or brushwood is recommended but not strictly necessary. Tip: sow this legume alternately with gold-of-pleasure (390900) for natural support.

Names:
Latin: Pisum sativum
Dutch: Peulen
Also known as: Sluimererwten or Peultjes
English: Sugar Pea, Mangetout
