Calvin’s Snap Peas

An eye-catching trio of snap pea varieties, years in the making. A beautiful mix, including Sugar Snap (green), Honey Snap II (yellow), and Royal Snap II (purple). These three varieties represent pea breeding at its finest. Our superior strain of the classic ‘Sugar Snap’ pea is the result of an ongoing breeding collaboration with the family of Dr. Calvin Lamborn, who bred the original strain in 1979. Together, we painstakingly reselected to produce an improved strain that maintained the integrity of Calvin’s original release. Honey Snap II and Royal Snap II, also from the Lamborn family, are the tastiest and most beautiful strains of golden-yellow and purple snap peas we have trialed. Complementary colors purple and yellow pop visually when combined, and the green provides a nice balance. Sure to be a winner at market and on the plate.
