Growing yellow and blue mangetout for the first time this year - the yellows had grown pods overnight. So excited I couldn't keep the camera still! ;D

wow I am impressed. I am struggling to grow anything this year, went down to the allotment this morning to find all my runner beans have been eaten, and all the dwarf beans too :(
I saw a link to a site where I could buy those seed so I did, role on next year!
;D
Looks good SS, is there a variety name do you know?
Golden Sweet, sown 20 April, so two months to cropping - I think that's fast! :D
I'm growing MT but they don't want to climb up the sticks what did you do?
Harvest time - that interested me. Found a quote - "Days to Harvest. Approximately 60 days for shelling peas, 'Sugar Snap' peas 62 days and snowpeas/mange tout 68 days."
Also note that MT are, in many cases, immature Sugar Snaps??
Coo! :o
Do you think it's the later sowing again tim?
My purple ones are showing too ;D
Can anyone tell me the variety?
A difficult name Elizabeth something Blauschwoek? ???
The ones I saw were advertised by "real seeds" can't remember the full addy as I followed a link... a search should turn them up.
:)
Real Seeds do the Yellow Sweet (noted for next year)
Here's the link to the blue one - Ezethas Krombek Blauwschok! :D
