'Sugar Bon Snap Pea' (Lathyrus oleraceus 'Sugar Bon Snap Pea') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and cottage gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It grows well in cool weather and can ride out a light frost. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. Bees and butterflies visit it, and it can climb to about 71 inches, so give it a support.
Pairs well with Lettuce, Cherry Belle radish, Broccoli, and Celeriac.
