Stories From Our Gardeners "Sugar Daddy snap peas are a popular choice for gardeners who want sweet, crunchy pods without the hassle of strings. This variety is completely stringless, making preparation easy and eating them straight from the vine even more enjoyable. The plants grow to a compact height of about two to three feet, so they’re perfect for smaller gardens, raised beds, or even large containers. They’re also resistant to common pea diseases like powdery mildew and pea mosaic virus, which means less worry and more healthy plants. Sugar Daddy peas produce an abundance of plump, juicy pods that are crisp, tender, and full of fresh, sweet flavor. They’re delicious eaten raw, tossed into salads, or lightly steamed for a side dish that still has a satisfying crunch. They also hold up well in stir-fries, adding both flavor and texture. Planting them is simple: sow seeds directly into well-drained soil in early spring or late summer for a fall harvest, and in about two months you’ll be picking your first pods. Because they keep producing over several weeks, you can enjoy multiple harvests from a single planting. Sugar Daddy snap peas are ideal for anyone who values ease of growing, disease resistance, and great taste. They’re a true garden treat, perfect for snacking, cooking, or sharing, and they make it easy to experience the simple pleasure of eating something fresh and sweet you’ve grown yourself." - S.W.
