Kings Seeds Pea Meteor Seeds

This variety of pea is a very dwarf growing type with small but well filled pods. It is early into production from an autumn sowing and it boasts excellent flavour. Meteor pea is the ideal variety for exposed sites and it can grow to a height of35cm.

Many young people today have never seen a pea-pod and only recognise peas if they come out of a plastic bag! We think this is a sad state of affairs because when grown fresh, peas are a totally different vegetable to those that are frozen. To get the sweetest flavour, peas are best cooked when picked young and cooked within 30 minutes of harvest, before the sugar has turned to starch.
