Most people think that winter is a “dead time” in the garden. But if you haven’t had a go at growing peas, you’d never know how easy that is. While our peas and beans are so cooperative in terms of germinating in winter, think about their relatives, the Broad beans. Broad beans are quite heavy plants and prone to collapsing when they grow, so a bit of support would be appreciated. The Sugar snap peas need a little bit of warmth to get going, so wait until late Early to Late Spring.
