Thompson & Morgan

Enjoy a burst of sweetness in your garden with Thompson and Morgan Oregon Sugar Pod Mangetout Pea Seeds, known for their tender pods and reliable heavy yields through summer into early autumn. You'll love how easily these peas slot into your favourite stir fries or steamed sides, especially when picked young for the best flavour. With strong mildew resistance and simple growing needs, they're a fantastic choice for gardeners seeking dependable results. Each packet comes with clear growing and care instructions so you can enjoy a bountiful crop in full sun. Direct sow Mangetout peas outdoors from March to June, once the soil has warmed. Choose a weed-free position on moist, fertile, well-drained soil in full sun. Sow Mangetout seed in flat-bottomed drills at a distance of five centimetres apart, and four centimetres deep. Allow a distance of 75cm between rows. For successional crops, sow Mangetout peas every ten days. Support Mangetout 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 Mangetout peas, regular and thorough watering, especially when in flower, will improve crop yields. Harvest edible podded peas around 12-13 weeks after sowing, just as the peas inside start to form. Regular picking will encourage further cropping. Product Specifications: Hardiness: Hardy.
