Peas Dr. Evans (Pisum sativum)

http://www.durgan.org/ShortURL/?JADST 23 June 2008 Dr. Evans Peas (Pisum sativum)

A variety called Dr. Evans was a sample received, and they were planted on 4 May 2008. Every seed germinated, and the plants are vigorous and healthy. The flowers are mauve, not white like most of the other peas grown. Full germination is difficult with peas in my experience, so I will collect seeds from this cultivar to determine if it repeats next year. It will be a few more days before the peas are mature enough for the table.

First picking today. The peas are normal in colour and taste just like most peas. I had full germination, and the plants are about 8 feet tall, and the pods are purple. Grow for the novelty.
