Laxton's Progress Pea

Laxton's Progress Pea Seeds are a fantastic choice for gardeners looking for a high-yielding and reliable pea variety. These seeds produce robust plants that reach up to 28 inches in height, yielding pods that are approximately 4 to 5 inches long. Each pod contains 8 to 11 peas, known for their sweet flavor and tender texture, making them perfect for fresh eating, freezing, or canning.

To grow Laxton's Progress Peas, plant the seeds about 1 inch deep in well-drained soil as soon as the soil can be worked in the spring, when the soil temperature is at least 10°C. Space the seeds 1 inch apart in rows that are 30 inches apart. Ensure the soil remains evenly moist, especially during the germination period and as the plants grow. Avoid overwatering, but do not let the soil dry out completely.

These pea plants typically mature in 55 to 60 days, providing a continuous harvest throughout the growing season. Laxton's Progress Peas are an excellent addition to any garden, offering both aesthetic appeal and culinary versatility.
