The Oregon Sugar Pod II is a snap pea that grows up to 30" tall and produces large pods up to 5" long by 1" wide! This sweet variety has excellent disease resistance and thrives in cool temperatures. The crisp and flavorful pods freeze well without losing their color or flavor! These take only 60 days to be ready. Though no one really knows when peas were first cultivated, historians can be certain that people grew them for food by the Bronze Age. Legend has it that fresh peas first became popular when a French gardener introduced them to the court of Louis XIV. Because they could be dried and stored for long periods of time, people in colonial times also valued this vegetable. Horticulturalists and gardeners alike have continued cultivating peas of all varieties and sizes. Oregon Sugar Pod was developed by Dr. James Baggett of Oregon State University.
