Product Description

Grow Organic & Heirloom Peas - Plant Organic Tom Thumb Pea Seeds

Originating in England in the mid-nineteenth century, Organic Tom Thumb Peas are the perfect solution for container gardens! Growing just 8 - 10 inches tall, plant Tom Thumb in a pot on your patio or close to the kitchen - anywhere you can snack on these tasty treats! In larger gardens, plant several Tom Thumbs in places where a trellis is not feasable. Frost tolerant, Tom Thumb makes a wonderful shelling pea, but when harvested young, the pod is also tender.

Planting Instructions
When to plant:
- Plant your Pea Seeds outside 4-6 weeks before the average last frost for your area.
- Make sure that the soil is warmer than 45 degrees.
How to plant:
- Plant your pea seeds about 1 inch deep in full sun.
- Allow 6 inches between each pea seed. Keep an eye on your seeds for a few days - if they wash out of the soil, poke them back in with a pen, twig, etc.
When to harvest:
- Grab the vine with one hand and pick the peas off with the other hand to avoid damaging the vines.
- Harvest when the peas are tender and the pods are developed.
*The more peas you pick, the more peas the plant will produce!
