Wando Pea, a classic heirloom variety, is prized for its exceptional flavor, productivity, and cold-hardiness. These bush peas produce sweet and tender pods that are perfect for fresh snacking or culinary creations. Growing Wando Peas is a straightforward and rewarding experience for gardeners and are a great choice for early-season planting!

Choose a well-drained, sunny location for planting. Sow Wando Pea seeds directly in the garden soil early in the spring, as they are cold-resistant and can tolerate cooler temperatures. Plant the seeds 1-2 inches deep and space them 2-3 inches apart in rows, allowing for adequate support or trellising as the plants grow.

Maintain consistent soil moisture, especially during flowering and pod development. Mulching around the plants helps retain moisture and suppress weeds.

Wando Peas typically mature in 70-75 days, and harvesting should be done regularly to encourage continuous pod production. Pods are best picked when they are plump but still young, ensuring optimal sweetness and tenderness.
