Pea Douce Provence 24 x Plug Plants

Sweet, Early Peas from Compact Plants Excellent variety for autumn planting Early crops of sweet, tender peas Generous, well-filled pods Compact plants ideal for smaller spaces Reliable and productive 'Douce Provence' is a traditional favourite that has earned its place in the vegetable garden for its hardiness, early cropping and deliciously sweet peas. Plant in autumn to give plants a head start over winter, ready to burst into growth as conditions improve in spring. Kings specifically recommends it for October sowing. Compact plants produce generous, curved pods containing around 8–9 smooth, dark green peas, giving you plenty of fresh pickings without taking over the vegetable plot. Its relatively short growth makes it a useful choice for raised beds and smaller vegetable gardens as well as allotments. Pick the pods regularly while they're plump and well filled, and enjoy the peas as soon after harvesting as possible, when their natural sweetness is at its best. Regular picking also encourages the plants to keep producing more pods.
