Pea : Big Ben

Big Ben.


Type of Seed: Smooth, Green.

Type of Pod: Long and rounded

History: Unknown


Description: This is a very tall variety of pea which will grow to over six foot tall and requires support. I grew these peas in March and they had started to produce flowers and form peas in May. They are strong and sturdy plants which produce large white flowers, like the name of this variety everything about it is big!


They are quite prolific and produce pods containing 8 to 9 large peas. They taste like a marrowfat pea and are definately worth growing.


I would try this variety again and will save the seed.
