Purple Podded Pea seeds please.

[Plot 18]

I wonder if anyone has a few seeds from any of the old tall, purple podded peas eg Carruthers, Beltony Blue, they can spare. (I already have some Robinson's Purple Podded)

I have self-saved Alderman and Super Sugarsnap (originally from the USA) to swap or quite a few varieties of squash, if you'd prefer.

If you are still looking for some tall purple podded peas I should have some to share. They may not be the freshest seed though. Are you just looking for shelling peas or snaps too?

Just shelling peas - lovely thank you 

[Jayb]

I'll have a little shuffle through this afternoon and see what's there.

Sorry I got side tracked!
I've both Carruther's Purple Podded and Clarke's Beltony Blue (although this is a few years old) you mention. Also Blauschokker and Stephen's. Let me know which you fancy and pm me your address.

Thank you, I tried to pm but your inbox is full 

[Jayb]

Sorted

The seeds arrived today and more than I expected - thank you very much  you're a star!

[Jayb]

Brilliant, you're welcome

The peas were put to chit on the 26th April and they started to show roots by the 30th :)

I've been putting them in small gutter lengths as they come through, the remaining few are now looking manky.
Results were good - all but 5 Carruther's and 8 Beltony Blues chitted, even though the seed was older of BB 

Hopefully most of them will now grow on and I can build up seed stock (as well as having some to eat as well - goes without saying!)
Thanks again Jayb
